Bug#966500: python3-notcurses: missing Breaks+Replaces: notcurses-bin (<< 1.6)

Package: python3-notcurses
Version: 1.6.9+dfsg.1-2
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa@lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'testing'.
It installed fine in 'testing', 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

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

  Preparing to unpack .../python3-notcurses_1.6.9+dfsg.1-2_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking python3-notcurses (1.6.9+dfsg.1-2) over (1.5.1+dfsg.1-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-notcurses_1.6.9+dfsg.1-2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/notcurses-pydemo', which is also in package notcurses-bin 1.5.1+dfsg.1-1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-notcurses_1.6.9+dfsg.1-2_amd64.deb


cheers,

Andreas
