[Bug 1304403] Re: Precise to Trusty - all of main - fails: Broken transition from libkadm5srv-mit8 to libkadm5srv-mit9

[Martin Pitt]

Hey Sam,

> At a level deeper than "it causes apt to work correctly," why is
adding replaces a reasonable fix?

It indeed does not actually replace any files. This is purely to nudge
apt into doing the upgrade to libkadm5srv-mit9, as otherwise the Breaks
causes it to hold back half of the stack and remove krb5-multidev. So
yes, the "missing Replaces" was perhaps misleading. We'll drop that
change after trusty's release again, so it's only a temporary delta.

Do you see a better way to do that? This is the least intrusive and "not
particularly wrong" change that I saw to fix this.
