Bug#1068166: manpages-dev: Fails to upgrade due to file conflict
Followup-For: Bug #1068166 Control: notfoud -1 6.07-1 Control: found -1 6.7-1 There are also a few manpages that moved from manpages (6.05.01-1) to manpages-dev (6.7-1): usr/share/man/man3/sigevent.3type.gz usr/share/man/man3/sigval.3type.gz usr/share/man/man7/sigevent.7.gz resulting in another file conflict: Preparing to unpack .../manpages-dev_6.7-1_all.deb ... Unpacking manpages-dev (6.7-1) ... dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/manpages-dev_6.7-1_all.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man3/sigevent.3type.gz', which is also in package manpages 6.05.01-1 Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/manpages-dev_6.7-1_all.deb Therefore manpages-dev needs to add/bump Breaks+Replaces: manpages (<< 6.7) too.

Looking closer the script most likely worked correctly when it was written, but some 3+ years ago the Contents files were split. https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2020/10/msg7.html I have updated debian/check-conflicts accordingly, and my version catches the six new clashing files :-).

There is a script debian/check-conflicts in the manpages source package which is supposed to detect such clashing files, but it is buggy because it only scans the contents of amd64 packages, while glibc-doc is an arch:all package.

Bug#1068166: manpages-dev: Fails to upgrade due to file conflict
Source: manpages Version: 6.05.01-1 Severity: serious Justification: makes the package in question unusable or mostly so Dear Maintainer, manpages-dev failed to upgrade due to a conflict with glibc-doc: Unpacking manpages-dev (6.7-1) over (6.05.01-1) ... dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/manpages-dev_6.7-1_all.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man3/pthread_cond_init.3.gz', which is also in package glibc-doc 2.37-15.1 Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/manpages-dev_6.7-1_all.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) Breaks/Replaces will need to be added if the file was moved, but it seems that only one of these packages should include this manpage.
