Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install
because it tries to overwrite other packages files.

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

  Preparing to unpack .../libsfst-dev_1.5.8-2_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking libsfst-dev (1.5.8-2) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive 
/var/cache/apt/archives/libsfst-dev_1.5.8-2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/include/utf8.h', which is also in package 
libutfcpp-dev 3.2.5+really3.2.4-2
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/libsfst-dev_1.5.8-2_amd64.deb

The two utf8.h headers provided by the different packages seem to be
completely unrelated.
sfst probably shouldn't provide headers with such generic names:

/usr/include/utf8.h
/usr/include/mem.h
/usr/include/interface.h
/usr/include/basic.h
/usr/include/alphabet.h

(They should probably rather be in a "namespace" subfolder like "fst".)


cheers,

Andreas
