[Bug 572151] Re: Tries to overwrite files from anyevent-perl without Replacing it

 

Thanks for working on that!

Before uploading to -proposed, I ran update-maintainer to update the maintainer field. Please remember to do so next time ;-)
I also deleted the Provides clause in debian/control as the only dependency of anyevent-perl has been updated and libanyevent-perl will be always installed in a normal installation. No need to declare anyevent-perl as virtual package.

Waiting for ubuntu-sru team member to approve the upload.

Thanks again!

  ErrorMessage: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man3/AnyEvent.3pm.gz', which is also in package anyevent-perl 0:1.02-0.2
  SourcePackage: initramfs-tools
  Title: package libanyevent-perl (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man3/AnyEvent.3pm.gz', which is also in package anyevent-perl 0:1.02-0.2
+ 
+ TEST CASE:
+ 1. Add karmic to /etc/apt/sources.list.
+ 2. Make sure libanyevent-perl is not installed.
+ 3. Install anyevent-perl (from karmic, not available in lucid).
+ 4. Install libanyevent-perl.
+ 
+ With 5.240-1 installation will fail (trying to overwrite files from
+ anyevent-perl). With the patch applied, dpkg should remove
+ anyevent-perl in favor of libanyevent-perl.
