Package: python3-mpi4py
Version: 1.3+hg20120611-1
Severity: serious

Hi,

while looking into #700782, we discovered that there is a symlink
vs. directory conflict between python3-mpi4py and python3.2-dev:
  python3.2-dev has /usr/include/python3.2 -> python3.2mu
  python3-mpi4py ships /usr/include/python3.2/mpi4py
Please move the linked shipped as python3.2/mpi4py to python3.2mu.

# apt-get install python3-mpi4py
# apt-get install python3-dev
[...]
Setting up python3.2-dev (3.2.3-6) ...
WARNING: non-empty directory on upgrade: /usr/include/python3.2

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 53 Jun 12  2012 mpi4py -> 
../../lib/python3/dist-packages/mpi4py/include/mpi4py
Setting up python3-dev (3.2.3-5) ...
[...]

# ls -lad /usr/include/python*
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root   60 Feb 20 09:02 /usr/include/python3.2
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1900 Feb 20 09:02 /usr/include/python3.2mu

After fixing this in python3-mpi4py, please clone this a bug and
reassign to python3.2-dev to add an appropriate versioned Conflicts
against the buggy python3-mpi4py versions. Breaks is probably not
sufficient to solve this "file conflict", as apt could decide to
deconfigure (and not upgrade) python3-mpi4py before
installing/upgrading python3-dev.
