.TH "DEB\-CHECK\-MISSING\-BREAKS\-REPLACES\-CONFLICTS" 1 "Debian Utilities" "DEBIAN"
.SH NAME
deb-check-file-conflicts \- check for missing Breaks/Replaces in Debian packages
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B deb-check-file-conflicts
[\fB\-\-debug\fR]
[\fB\-\-changes\-file\fR=\fIFILE\fR]
[\fB\-o\fR \fIOUTPUT\fR]
[\fB\-\-output\fR=\fIOUTPUT\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B deb-check-file-conflicts
checks produced binary packages for conflicting files against packages that are not
declared with Breaks and Replaces relationships.
.PP
The tool helps identify potential upgrade issues where files from one package
might conflict with files from other packages during installation.
.PP
Note that the results depend on what apt repositories are enabled. If you want
to prevent upgrade issues across Debian releases, you need to have both unstable
and the previous release repositories enabled in the apt sources configuration.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-\-debug
Enable debug output
.TP
.B \-\-changes\-file=\fIFILE\fR
Specify the changes file to check (defaults to CHANGES_FILE environment variable)
.TP
.BR \-o ", " \-\-output =\fIFILE\fR
Write output to FILE (defaults to $EXPORT_DIR/missing_breaks_replaces.xml or ./missing_breaks_replaces.xml)
.SH OUTPUT
The tool generates a JUnit XML format report containing test results for each
binary package checked. Each test case indicates whether missing Breaks/Replaces
relationships were found.
.SH EXAMPLES
.EX
# Check a changes file for missing relationships:
$ deb-check-file-conflicts --changes-file foo_1.0-1_amd64.changes
# Write results to a specific output file:
$ deb-check-file-conflicts -o results.xml --changes-file foo_1.0-1_amd64.changes
