Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'buster'.
It installed fine in 'buster', then the upgrade to 'bullseye' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
Breaks+Replaces relation.

See policy 7.6 at
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#overwriting-files-and-replacing-packages-replaces

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

  Preparing to unpack .../04-cyrus-imapd_3.2.5-2_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking cyrus-imapd (3.2.5-2) over (3.0.8-6+deb10u5) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive 
/tmp/apt-dpkg-install-gaKV7o/04-cyrus-imapd_3.2.5-2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/cyrus-imapd.conf', which is also in 
package cyrus-common 3.0.8-6+deb10u5
  dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)

cyrus-common_3.2.3-1 was the first version no longer shipping the conflicting 
file
cyrus-imapd_3.2.4-2 was the first version actually shipping it

cheers,

Andreas
