Actually the httpds should conflict too as they install listeners on
0.0.0.0:80.

E.g.:  With no httpd installed, install the apache package, apache will
listen on 0.0.0.0:80; now install the thttpd package, it'll work fine,
but no thttpd daemon will run afterwards, because it fails to bind to
0.0.0.0:80, see syslog; reboot the machine, and you'll be surprised to
see the thttpd daemon run, and not apache, because thttpd gets started
first.

I still think this will fix such problems just fine:
