2013-08-23 16:30:49 Nick Moffitt summary juju-core does not conflict with python juju package juju-core does not use alternatives
2013-08-23 16:31:03 Nick Moffitt description I hear a rumour that juju-core does not use /etc/alternatives for sound reasons of migration and progress. Would it not be preferrable for the juju-core package to use the conflicts/replaces fields to tell the package manager to uninstall the old juju package, rather than simply letting the juju-core installation fail if the old juju package is installed? I hear a rumour that juju-core does not use /etc/alternatives for reasons of migration and progress. Would it not be preferrable for the juju-core package to use the conflicts/replaces fields to tell the package manager to uninstall the old juju package, rather than simply letting the juju-core installation fail if the old juju package is installed?

I hear a rumour that juju-core deliberately does not use /etc/alternatives. Would it then not be preferrable for the juju-core package to use the conflicts/replaces fields to tell the package manager to uninstall the old juju package, rather than simply letting the juju-core installation fail if the old juju package is installed?
