Package: git-core Version: 1:1.6.2.4-1 Severity: important
When trying to upgrade from the version in testing to the version in unstable, a conflict arises with git-core that leaves aptitude in a broken state: Preparing to replace git-core 1:1.6.2.4-1 (using .../git-core_1%3a1.6.3.1-1_amd64.deb) ... Unpacking replacement git-core ... dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/git-core_1%3a1.6.3.1-1_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/share/man/man1/git-difftool.1.gz', which is also in package git-cola dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe) Processing triggers for man-db ...

It seems as if all git-related packages may need to be removed to fix the current state unless the dependencies are handled better in the packages themselves. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (810, 'unstable'), (600, 'stable'), (550, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages git-core depends on: ii libc6 2.9-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcurl3-gnutls 7.18.2-8.1 Multi-protocol file transfer libra ii libdigest-sha1-perl 2.11-2+b1 NIST SHA-1 message digest algorith ii liberror-perl 0.17-1 Perl module for error/exception ha ii libexpat1 2.0.1-4 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii perl-modules 5.10.0-22 Core Perl modules ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-13 compression library - runtime Versions of packages git-core recommends: ii less 429-2 pager program similar to more ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:5.1p1-5+b1 secure shell client, an rlogin/rsh ii patch 2.5.9-5 Apply a diff file to an original ii rsync 3.0.5-1 fast remote file copy program (lik Versions of packages git-core suggests: pn git-arch <none> (no description available) pn git-cvs <none> (no description available) pn git-daemon-run <none> (no description available) pn git-doc <none> (no description available) pn git-email <none> (no description available) pn git-gui <none> (no description available) pn git-svn <none> (no description available) pn gitk <none> (no description available) pn gitweb <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
