Package: libcairomm-1.16-doc Version: 1.16.2-3 Severity: serious User: [email protected] Usertags: fileconflict Control: affects -1 + libcairomm-1.0-doc X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Both libcairomm-1.16-doc and libcairomm-1.0-doc install a symbolic link /usr/share/doc/cairomm-1.0 pointing to libcairomm-1.0-doc. On the face of it, this is an undeclared file conflict. In practice, dpkg does not track filetypes and therefore fails to notice this conflict for now. It will as its database gains awareness of file types. Since the link is dead for libcairomm-1.16-doc, I preliminarily conclude that it is at fault and should stop installing this link. Please reassign if I have reached an inappropriate conclusion.
