Bug#248539: libxrandr2: No need to conflict with xlibs
Package: libxrandr2
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-1
Severity: minor
Hi,
libxrandr2 does not need to conflict with xlibs (<< 4.3.0).
xlibs 4.2.1-12.1 does only contain libxrandr 1.0 and not
2.0.
# dpkg --force-conflicts -i libxrandr2_4.3.0.dfsg.1-1_i386.deb
this works very well with my xlibs 4.2.1-12.1 and xlibs-dev
4.2.1-12.1 installed. It gives only a warning about the
conflict, but not override-stuff.
# dpkg -S libXrandr
xlibs: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXrandr.so.1.0
xlibs-dev: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXrandr.a
xlibs: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXrandr.so.1
libxrandr2: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXrandr.so.2
libxrandr2: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXrandr.so.2.0
Even that seems to work very well. (I wonder, where
libXrandr.so is, but that's out of the scope of this bug
and probably covered in some FAQ.)
