Package: lintian Version: 2.5.6 Severity: normal Hi,
Lintian shows several binaries-have-file-conflict warnings for firebird2.5 due to it not considering the virtual packages provided and conflicted with. Example: W: firebird2.5 source: binaries-have-file-conflict firebird2.5-classic-common firebird2.5-super usr/bin/fbstat But: Package: firebird2.5-classic-common Provides: firebird-udf, firebird-utils Conflicts: firebird-udf, firebird-utils, … Package: firebird2.5-super Provides: firebird-server, firebird-utils, firebird-udf Conflicts: firebird-server, firebird-utils, firebird-udf, … So in reality the two packages do conflict with each other and there is no real file conflict. Sorry for not providing a patch, I have delayed filing this bug enough already hoping to be able to find time for a patch.
