Package: emacs-lucid
Severity: serious
Version: 1:25.2+1-11
Hi Rob,
I'm sorry, but the Breaks/Replaces headers still seem incomplete. I just
experienced the following upgrade failure when I wanted to switch from
emacs25 to emacs-lucid on a Raspberry Pi running Buster/Testing arm64:
Preparing to unpack .../emacs_1%3a25.2+1-11_all.deb ...
Unpacking emacs (1:25.2+1-11) over (47.0) ...
Selecting previously unselected package emacs-lucid.
Preparing to unpack .../emacs-lucid_1%3a25.2+1-11_arm64.deb ...
Unpacking emacs-lucid (1:25.2+1-11) ...

emacs25 25.2+1-6+b2

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of emacs:
emacs depends on emacs-gtk (>= 1:25) | emacs-lucid (>= 1:25) | emacs-nox (>=
1:25); however:
Package emacs-gtk is not installed.
Package emacs-lucid is not installed.
Package emacs-nox is not installed.
dpkg: error processing package emacs (--configure):

[…]
The package currently has:
Replaces: emacs-gtk, emacs-lucid (<< 1:25), emacs-nox
But it should have (at least):
Replaces: emacs-gtk, emacs-nox, emacs25, emacs25-lucid, emacs25-nox
(I don't see why a package should have a Replaces header against an
earlier, identically named version of itself, so I dropped the
"emacs-lucid (<< 1:25)" part. Feel free to keep it though as it
shouldn't do any harm there.)
Having the same packages listed in Conflicts should be probably done,
too. So please also replace
Conflicts: emacs-gtk, emacs-nox
with
Conflicts: emacs-gtk, emacs-nox, emacs25, emacs25-lucid, emacs25-nox
The same also needs to be done for emacs-gtk and emacs-nox with the
according package being removed from the above examples and emacs-lucid
added instead.

I haven't seen anything related in my piuparts upgrade tests, so this
seems to be really "fixed", thus closing.
