Package: vcmi
Version: 1.0.0+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

The new vcmi tries to overwrite files previously provided by G-D-P
generated homm3-en-data local package.
Which should be fixed ?

Is this VCMI_Tests_2011b.h3m file even free ?
(then it would remain in G-D-P recipe)

There might be other duplicated files.

Greetings,
