[Bug 1277312] Re: package plasma-nm 0.9.3.1-0ubuntu1~saucy1 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/icons/oxygen/32x32/apps/networkmanager.png', which is also in package kde-workspace-data 4:4.10.5-0ubuntu0.1

[Harald Sitter]

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ In certain cases upgrading from something 13.04 to something >=13.10 *can* cause a file conflict between kde-workspace-data and plasma-nm (in particular I am assuming when one had an unofficial plasma-nm backported installed in 13.04).
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ Hard to test.
+ Either: install raring, update, upgrade (doesn't reproducbily fail most likely)
+ Or: install saucy, get raring deb of kde-workspace-data and force install it, try to force upgrade plasma-nm (with the fix applied this ought to prevent plasma-nm from actually installing)
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ If I do not know how to properly Replace/Conflict a package then I guess we have the potential of breaking every upgrade everywhere.
+ 
+ [Other Info]
+ N/A
+ 
+ ------
  There is error during start up. Experienced after upgrading kubuntu.
