Package: geoip-database
Version: 1.4.5.dfsg-2
Severity: important
Justification: file conflict with another package
Attempting to install geoip-database fails due to a file conflict with
libgeoip1:
Reading package fields... Done
Reading package status... Done
Parsing Found/Fixed information... Done
(Reading database ... 371932 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking geoip-database (from .../geoip-database_1.4.5.dfsg-2_all.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/geoip-database_1.4.5.dfsg-2_all.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite `/usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat', which is also in package
libgeoip1
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
A package failed to install. Trying to recover:
Press return to continue.
If this package needs to include /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat then perhaps the
control information should mark geoip-database as conflicting with libgeoip1,
or replacing it rather than recommending it.
geoip-bin still works with libgeoip1, I just wanted to catch this bug while
this package was still in experimental.
Thanks.
