icingaweb2 2.11.4 changed package layout, breaks icingaweb2::module::monitoring about puppet-icingaweb2

[andrekeller]

We're at version 2.11.4-3 now. Before, there was no breaks which would have replaced the monitoring module completely. Icinga Web has to be upgraded to version 2.11.4 in order to install this icingaweb2-module-monitoring transition package.

If that was the intention, then the breaks is probably incorrect.
Shouldn't it be

Breaks: icingaweb2 (<< 2.11.4-1+ubuntu20.04)

instead?

There is no version 2.11.4-3+ubuntu20.04 published for package icingaweb2 as far as I can see

@lbetz maybe I'm missing something, but this really does not solve the issue here.

Package icingaweb2-module-monitoring lists that it will break icingaweb2 in its dependencies, as a consequence apt will remove package icingaweb2 once it installs icingaweb2-module-monitoring:

$ sudo apt-get install --dry-run icingaweb2-module-monitoring

@lippserd good point. I have overlooked:
Remv icingaweb2 [2.11.4-1+ubuntu20.04]

[lippserd]

Give me a second.

Uploaded 2.11.4-4 which hopefully fixes the Breaks. However, due to the changed dependencies, the upgrade needs to be done with the following command I think:

apt install --only-upgrade icingaweb2

[andrekeller]

I can confirm that installing the updated version of icingaweb2-modules-monitoring no longer breaks the icingaweb2 "base" package.

The puppet module should probably be updated at some point anyway, as it does not make much sense to install this transition package unless you are upgrading from a previous release imho.

Thanks for the fast reaction and fix though 👍

Exactly, not only older versions of the puppet module have to be supported, but especially old Iicnga package versions.
