Package: python2.4 Version: 2.4.2-2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
When I tried to upgrade, dpkg croaked and bailed out with: dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/python2.4_2.4.2+2.4.3c1-1_i386.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/pwd.so', which is also in package python2.4-minimal However, the order of installed packages was: python2.4 -> python2.4-minimal. Manual "aptitude install python2.4" after dist-upgrade succeeds. As such, the bug is in the order the packages were processed. Because this breaks during upgrade and quite likely during installation as well, I'm fairly confident that severity is justified.
