• Bug#1080420: reopening selinux conflict

    Hi Russel,

    This bug was marked as affecting an undeclared file conflict for quite
    long and I wondered when you'd eventually fix it and then noticed that
    it was fixed, but my bug association did not notice the fixing and left
    me believing it was still open.

    So in reality, this problem is not completely fixed yet. Both
    python3-sepolicy version 3.7-2 and 3.7-3 contain /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/sepolicy/gui.py and /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/sepolicy/sedbus.py as before. You removed
    these files from policycoreutils-gui in version 3.7-2, but there still
    is a conflict with policycoreutils-gui version 3.4-1 as included in
    bookworm and upgrading from bookworm to trixie may cause an unpack error
    if done in the wrong order.

    I think python3-sepolicy really needs:

    Breaks: policycoreutils-gui (<< 3.7-2~)
    Replaces: policycoreutils-gui (<< 3.7-2~)

    Can you add those and thus fix this long-standing bug for good?

    Helmut
