Package: pidgin-guifications
Version: 2.14-2
Severity: important

When installing pidgin-guifications I get the following error:

| Unpacking pidgin-guifications (from .../pidgin-guifications_2.14-2_powerpc.deb) ...
| dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/pidgin-guifications_2.14-2_powerpc.deb (--unpack):
|  trying to overwrite `/usr/share/locale/bn/LC_MESSAGES/guifications.mo', which is also in package gaim-guifications
| dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
| Preparing to replace gaim-guifications 2.13~beta4-1 (using .../gaim-guifications_2.14-2_all.deb) ...

Shouldn't pidgin-guification be using Replaces and/or Conflicts to tell
apt about the upgrade path?  It doesn't appear to declare any
relationship with the old package at all.

Oops.

I missed that file apparently. I thought I had checked all the files,
and most of them were in like /pidgin/ instead of /gaim/ and the like.
For a period of time, most of the gaim/pidgin suites were able to be
installed side by side.


New upload in a bit.
