Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'sid' to 'experimental'.
It installed fine in 'sid', then the upgrade to 'experimental' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
Breaks+Replaces relation.
This error may also be triggered by having a predecessor package from
'sid 'installed while installing the package from 'experimental'.

See policy 7.6 at
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#overwriting-files-and-replacing-packages-replaces

From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

  Preparing to unpack .../votca-data_2022-2_all.deb ...
  Unpacking votca-data (2022-2) ...

cheers,
