Bug#771213: [debian-mysql] Bug#771213: mariadb-server-10.0: file conflict with mysql-client-5.5
Thanks for reporting this! I mysql-5.5/5.6 the mysql_plugin is part of the client package: mysql-client-5.6.install:usr/bin/mysql_plugin mysql-client-5.6.manpages:debian/tmp/usr/share/man/man1/mysql_plugin.1 In MariaDB it is part of server package: mariadb-server-10.0.install:usr/bin/mysql_plugin mariadb-server-10.0.manpages:debian/tmp/usr/share/man/man1/mysql_plugin.1 As this command controls what plugins the server loads, I think the proper location indeed is in the server package (as upstream did) and I will not change it, instead I added breaks/replaces to overwrite file ( https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s7.6.1) in commit http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-mysql/mariadb-10.0.git/commit/?id=7bda76751754145a66239c8f9fd343d47fd1c1b0 This fix will be uploaded once 10.0.15 it is finalized for Debian.

Package: mariadb-server-10.0 Severity: serious Here's me trying to migrate from MySQL to MariaDB: Unpacking mariadb-server-10.0 (10.0.14-4) ... dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/mariadb-server-10.0_10.0.14-4_i386.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man1/mysql_plugin.1.gz', which is also in package mysql-client-5.5 5.5.40-1 I'll let you figure out which combination of Conflicts/Breaks/Replaces is appropriate in this case. :) -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: amd64 Kernel: Linux 3.16-2-amd64 (SMP w/3 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
