[Bug 1385390] Re: package ack-grep 2.12-1 fails to install/upgrade with "trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/ack', which is the diverted version of `/usr/bin/ack-grep'" if the local admin manually added that diversion beforehand (as suggested by upstream)

 

Normally I would agree with you, but there is also the fact that they
actually told you to do this on their website. I actually did this long
ago (relatively) and didn't know the repercussions. Isn't it possible to
remove any existing diversion during upgrade?
