Package: vlc-bin
Version: 2.2.6-2
Severity: serious

Usertags: piuparts
Control: affects -1 + kmplayer

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'stretch'.
It installed fine in 'stretch', then the upgrade to 'buster' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
Breaks+Replaces relation.

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

cheers,

Oops, my fault. That should have been an upgrade from stretch to sid,
skipping buster.
