Package: libharfbuzz0a
Version: 0.9.19-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I am trying to perform a routine upgrade of my Sid system (aptitude
full-upgrade). It appears that aptitude is trying to install two packages,
libharfbuzz-gobject0 and libharfbuzz0b{ab}. Since libharfbuzz0b conflicts with
libharfbuzz0a, aptitude suggests removing over 300 packages, which I'd like to
avoid. I haven't done anything to correct the problem, since it appears that a
lot of packages depend on libharfbuzz0a. The only thing I think that would make
this upgrade possible if libharfbuzz0a and libharfbuzz0b could coexist. I have
no idea if that's desirable or even possible.

Indeed, this is just a transition. Just wait till things are rebuilt and apt
doesn't try to rebuild all your system anymore. Should be a matter of a few
days.
