Hi, I'd like to update liquidsoap in buster to smoothen some upgrade paths from stretch. liquidsoap/buster Breaks+Replaces about 35 plugin packages from stretch, but on some upgrade paths apt prefers to keep some old packages including liquidsoap installed (noticed in piuparts). Adding Conflicts: liquidsoap-plugin-ogg "improves" the scores given by apt to ensure more cruft gets removed and no upgradable package is kept at an old version (verified in piuparts). There is no point in applying this HACK in sid, since direct stretch->bullseye/sid upgrades skipping buster are not supported. Andreas
