I'd think that should be a Conflicts: rather than a Breaks -- see: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-conflicts and also perhaps: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-breaks https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces Cheers, Phil. -- |)| Philip Hands [+44 (0)20 8530 9560] HANDS.COM Ltd. |-| http://www.hands.com/ http://ftp.uk.debian.org/ |(| Hugo-Klemm-Strasse 34, 21075 Hamburg, GERMANY
