  • Bug#1100547: libalgorithm-diff-xs-perl: fails to unpack for multiple ar

    From Helmut Grohne@21:1/5 to All on Sat Mar 15 07:10:01 2025
    Package: libalgorithm-diff-xs-perl
    Version: 0.04-8+b4
    Severity: serious
    User: debian-qa@lists.debian.org
    Usertags: fileconflict

    Hi,

    this is an unfortunate case of Multi-Arch craziness. At some point, the package's content was multiarch-counpackable and therefore the multiarch
    hinter suggested adding Multi-Arch: same. This was then turned into a
    commit by the Debian janitor and duly included. Unfortunately, now the
    file /usr/share/man/man3/Algorithm::Diff::XS.3pm.gz is different between architectures and as a result unpacking can fail. I talk about unpacking
    rather than installing here as coinstalling is prevented by the perl dependency. Meanwhile the hinter has been changed to no longer suggest
    the addition of M-A:same in situations where a dependency (such as perl)
    will prevent coinstallation and therefore the hinter will not resuggest
    the addition for future uploads even if that file happens to become
    equal across architectures again. Please drop M-A:same and excuse the
    problems endured with this part of automated tooling.

    Helmut
