Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
squeeze. It installed fine in squeeze, then the upgrade to wheezy fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
replaces relation.

See policy 7.6 at
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces

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

  Selecting previously deselected package libuim7.
  Unpacking libuim7 (from .../libuim7_1%3a1.7.1-3_amd64.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libuim7_1%3a1.7.1-3_amd64.deb 
(--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/libuim-custom.so.2', which is also in package 
libuim6 1:1.5.7-9.1

Probably
  Conflicts: libuim6
  Replaces: libuim6
will be needed because the libuim6 package may be unusable after installing
libuim7 and will be unusable after installing and removing libuim7 because
some file has disappeared.


cheers,

Andreas
