    From Helmut Grohne@21:1/5 to All on Sun Apr 13 21:00:02 2025
    Package: libgcobol-15-dev,libgcobol-15-dev-amd64-cross,libgcobol-15-dev-arc-cross,libgcobol-15-dev-arm64-cross,libgcobol-15-dev-ppc64el-cross
    Severity: serious
    User: debian-qa@lists.debian.org
    Usertags: fileconflict

    The file /usr/share/man/man3/gcobol.3.gz is contained in the packages
    * libgcobol-15-dev/15-20250406-1 as present in experimental
    * libgcobol-15-dev-amd64-cross/15-20250406-1cross1 as present in experimental
    * libgcobol-15-dev-arc-cross/15-20250315-1cross1 as present in experimental
    * libgcobol-15-dev-arm64-cross/15-20250406-1cross1 as present in experimental
    * libgcobol-15-dev-ppc64el-cross/15-20250406-1cross1 as present in experimental

    These packages can be unpacked concurrently, because there is no
    relevant Replaces or Conflicts relation. Attempting to unpack these
    packages concurrently results in an unpack error from dpkg, because none
    of the packages installs a diversion for the affected file.

    Please figure out which of these packages should properly own the
    affected file and reassign the bug as appropriate. When doing so, please
    add the other packages to the set of affected packages using "Control:
    affects -1 + <packagename>" to avoid the filing of duplicates.

    The other packages should stop installing the file. In case the file is
    being moved between packages, Breaks and Replaces should be declared. In
    this case, please refer to policy section 7.6 for details. Another
    useful resource is https://wiki.debian.org/PackageTransition.

    Kind regards
