Description Jim Radford 2002-08-31 02:12:24 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1b) Gecko/20020820

Description of problem:
both db1-1.85-8 and gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-20 both contain

 /usr/bin/db1_dump185
 /usr/lib/libdb1.so.2
 /usr/lib/libdb1.a

Either gnome-libs probably shouldn't provide these files since if you  obsolete
db1 then you can't have db1-devel installed.

Comment 1 Havoc Pennington 2002-09-04 18:53:27 UTC

See explanation on #73138 - do we need an explicit Conflicts? The fact that the
files conflict should be enough right... 

db1-devel isn't intended to be installable; the point of moving db1 into
gnome-libs was to kill any compilation vs. db1.

Comment 2 Jim Radford 2002-09-04 21:27:19 UTC

I think adding an explicit conflict is the least that should be done.  Just
leaving conflicting files seems rude.  Do I have to crosscheck every file from
every package just to decide what to install?  Why not just leave db1 as a
separate package?  Clearly it is required by gnome-libs otherwise it wouldn't be
there.  Why hide that fact?
