Hi All,

I downloaded

gssdp_0.7.2-2.diff.gz<http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gssdp/gssdp_0.7.2-2.diff.gz>

gssdp_0.7.2-2.dsc
<http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gssdp/gssdp_0.7.2-2.dsc>
gssdp_0.7.2.orig.tar.gz
<http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gssdp/gssdp_0.7.2.orig.tar.gz>

from http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gssdp/. merged all three using
dpkg-source -x gssdp_0.7.2-2.dsc command.

compiled successfully. But when i tried to install
libgssdp-1.0-dev_0.7.2-2_i386.deb, I am getting following error.

dpkg -i libgssdp-1.0-dev_0.7.2-2_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 154512 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking libgssdp-1.0-dev (from libgssdp-1.0-dev_0.7.2-2_i386.deb) ...

package gir-repository-dev 0:0.6.5-5ubuntu2*
Errors were encountered while processing:

Does any body know what is the reason for this error?

Your new package (libgssdp-1.0-dev version 0.7.2-2) wants to install a file
that is already controlled by a currently installed package (gir-repository-
dev version 0:0.6.5-5ubuntu2). The specific file is
/usr/share/gir-1.0/GSSDP-1.0.gir.

IMO, neither package should install this file. /usr/share/$foo is usually the
domain of a package named "$foo".

Finally, it appears that you are mixing repositories, which you should only do
when you know the combination is safe, due to the policies governing each
repository.

I can't make a recommendation on how to solve your issue without knowing more
about why you are installing a package from a .dsc. However, one way to fix
you issue is, prior to building the .deb, to edit debian/rules so that
/usr/share/gir-1.0/GSSDP-1.0.gir is not installed.

As I mentioned I had taken this code from
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gssdp/. I havenot modified any
thing.

I edited debian/rules file as you mentioned, but no success. I am getting
same error.

Please trim your replies in the future. Full-quoting is rarely of any

Different file. Different package combination. Same issue. Same resolution.
