Hello, I am sure there is a design reason for this behavior which I am missing, I would appreciate if someone could explain it.
Starting point: Package A version X, Depends on Package A-DATA version X Boths Package A-X and A-DATA-X are installed. Action: dpkg -i Package A-DATA, version X+1 Result: The package is properly installed without any warnings, however Package A becomes broken, GUI update/install tools will refuse to work until an apt-get -f install is issued (which will remove the broken package). Shouldn't the dpkg install package warn or not install the new package by checking that an installed package will become broken ?
