[Fwd: Bug#47294: file conflict]

[Sudhakar Chandrasekharan <thaths@netscape.com>]

Hi,

Basically, I moved some files (/usr/share/aspell/*) from the package aspell
to libaspell3.  How do I take care of this conflict in my packages?  Should
the control file say that libasepll3 (0.28.2.1-2) Replace-s aspell
(<=0.28.2.1-1)?

S.
