Package: eboard
Version: 1.1.3-0.1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

since version 1.1.3-0.1 eboard has merged with eboard-extras-pack1,
which is now useless, obsolete and in conflict with eboard. When trying
to install eboard with the extras pack package installed it bailed out
with the following:

Preparing to unpack .../eboard_1.1.3-0.1_amd64.deb ...
Unpacking eboard (1.1.3-0.1) over (1.1.1-6.1+b1) ...
dpkg: error processing archive
/var/cache/apt/archives/eboard_1.1.3-0.1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/share/games/eboard/Alpha.png', which is also
in package eboard-extras-pack1 2-3
dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/eboard_1.1.3-0.1_amd64.deb

Therefore a "Conflict: eboard-extras-pack1" line looks appropriate.

Of course purging eboard-extras-pack1 worked around the problem, and it
should be removed from Debian as well, but this is another report.

Cheers,
Gabriele :-)
