Package: firmware-qcom-soc
Version: 20200421-1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa@lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'stable'.
It installed fine in 'stable', then the upgrade to 'sid' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
Breaks+Replaces relation.

See policy 7.6 at
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#overwriting-files-and-replacing-packages-replaces

This test intentionally skipped 'testing' to find file overwrite
problems before packages migrate from 'unstable' to 'testing'.

From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

  Preparing to unpack .../firmware-qcom-soc_20200421-1_all.deb ...
  Unpacking firmware-qcom-soc (20200421-1) ...

cheers,

Andreas
