I started think about this because of this bug[0]. To
close it I would build the libcdk5(-dev) and libcdkw5(-dev)
packages and more a package with common files. Even that
way libcdk5 and libcdkw5 must conflict because /usr/include/cdk
have common files (just one is different, cdk_config.h if
I remember correct).

As the upstream tarball is cdk I thought cdk-common. As
is not possible, the package with common files would be 
libcdk-common ?
