No, there wouldn't. Upgrading manpages-dev first would introduce the Replaces so that works and upgrading libaio-dev first would remove the conflicting files. So either order would work, unlike now. >> Also manpages-dev says: >> >>* debian/control: add Replace against libaio-dev, because of >> aio_init.3.gz and lio_listio.3.gz (Closes: #636704) >> >> That is only approriate when the files are moved from libaio-dev to >> manpages-dev and clearly libaio-dev has not droped those files. > > They have not moved yet, that does not make manpages-dev wrong, > neither libaio-dev.

Also manpages-dev says: * debian/control: add Replace against libaio-dev, because of aio_init.3.gz and lio_listio.3.gz (Closes: #636704) That is only approriate when the files are moved from libaio-dev to manpages-dev and clearly libaio-dev has not droped those files. So one or both of the two packages are wrong. MfG Goswin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
