If you want to find out what packages a given package conflicts with;
use apt-cache show <package>. If you are more interested in what
chains of packages conflict with what other chains/groups; use
something like aptitude and try changing the status of packages from
install to remove without actually committing to an action (i.e. don't
press 'g' afterwards).
