irda-utils: howto dist-upgrade when package name has changed?



hello list...

i am the maintainer of irda-utils which recently got this bug filed
against it:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=267278

the fix suggested there does not work.
the problem is that the package(s) in stable are called irda-tools and
irda-common and the current version is called irda-utils. when doing a
dist-ugprade from stable to unstable, irda-tools and irda-common are
not replaced automatically by irda-utils. how can i handle this?
irda-utils defines:

Replaces: irda-common, irda-tools
Provides: irda-tools
Conflicts: irda-common, irda-tools

but that does not seem to suffice. is a pseudo-package irda-tools
necessary which depends on irda-utils?

thanks for suggestions,
 sebastian
