** Description changed:

- During a dist-upgrade (via python-apt) from Precise to Trusty there is a
- file conflict between kdesdk-scripts and pkg-kde-tools.
+ [Impact]
+ 
+ Since 12.04 various files from pkg-kde-tools moved to kdesdk-scripts
+ creating a file conflict between a sufficiently old version and a
+ sufficiently new version. This can break upgrades to 14.04. The solution
+ is to introduce a replaces and breaks relationship to force pkg-kde-
+ tools to be upgraded first.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ * On a 12.04 installation, install kdesdk-scripts
+ * Upgrade to 14.04
+ * No file conflicts should appear between kdesdk-scripts and pkg-kde-tools
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+ relationship could be wrong rendering any of the two packages
+ uninstallable or unupgradable
+ 
+ [Other Info]
