  • Bug#1104741: devscripts: deb-check-file-conflicts does not see Conflict

    From Samuel Thibault@21:1/5 to All on Mon May 5 16:00:02 2025
    Package: devscripts
    Version: 2.25.10
    Severity: important

    Hello,

    As seen in the CI job:
    https://salsa.debian.org/debian/hwloc/-/jobs/7524883

    $ check_for_missing_breaks_replaces.py -o ${WORKING_DIR}/missing_breaks.xml --changes-file ${WORKING_DIR}/*.changes
    [ERROR] Missing Breaks/Replaces found
    [ERROR] hwloc conflicts with hwloc-nox files: [...]

    a missing Breaks/Replaces relation is raised, but the hwloc-nox does
    already Conflicts with hwloc, which as I understand

    https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#conflicting-binary-packages-conflicts

    is the right way because hwloc and hwloc-nox "provide the same file and
    will continue to do so".

    unfortunatly I fail to see how this is caused by devscripts or what the fix should be, can you (or someone else) please explain?

    The entire society has no clue what the word freedom means in the context of relating to the world around them. It has degenerated into "my ego first". It is why the entire planet is dying right now.

    Oh, isn't that deb-check-file-conflicts that is used here?

    Ok, it's supposed to be :) https://salsa.debian.org/salsa-ci-team/pipeline/-/issues/444#note_613032
