Package: procps Version: 2:3.3.17-4 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts Control: affects -1 + manpages-fr-extra
Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from 'jessie' to 'stretch' to 'buster'. It installed fine in 'jessie', and upgraded to 'stretch' and 'buster' successfully, but then the upgrade to 'bullseye' failed. In case the package was not part of an intermediate stable release, the version from the preceding stable release was kept installed. >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): [...] Preparing to unpack .../03-procps_2%3a3.3.17-4_amd64.deb ...

Errors were encountered while processing: /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-chSi0P/03-procps_2%3a3.3.17-4_amd64.deb Up to stretch, the localized manpages were part of manpages-fr-extra. That package did not exist in buster (but may have survived from stretch) and was resurrected as a transitional package in bullseye. Therefore the missing B+R only show up in more complicated upgrade scenarios. cheers, Andreas
