Even against older versions? You have one package foo-0.5.2-1, you split
it  in  foo-0.5.2-2 and  foo-data-0.5.2-2.  Should not  foo-data-0.5.2-2
conflicts with  foo (<= 0.5.2-1)? This  is not a  very realistic example
because in  this case,  I suppose  that foo will  depend on  foo-data (=
${binary:Version}).

Thanks for any insight.
