during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from

It installed fine in 'testing', then the upgrade to 'sid' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
Breaks+Replaces relation.

Thanks for the heads up.
I'm not sure what's happening here: polyglot-groovy-0.4.11.jar was
indeed split away from "libtakari-polyglot-maven-java" and into
"libtakari-polyglot-groovy-java", however the new version of
"libtakari-polyglot-maven-java" does *not* depend on/recommend
"libtakari-polyglot-groovy-java".
So I'm unsure why "libtakari-polyglot-groovy-java" is being installed in
the first place, during the piuparts upgrade. It's not present in
testing, and it has currently zero reverse-dependencies.
I did my own testing and on a bare system with
"libtakari-polyglot-maven-java" installed, upgrading to sid does not
include an installation of "libtakari-polyglot-groovy-java".
Any idea what's going on?
Thanks,
