I meant to say Conflicts+Replaces too of course.

I tried both versioned and unversioned ones already.

We had something similar to:
Package: hal-cups-utils
Priority: optional
Section: gnome
Depends: system-config-printer-udev (>= 1.2.3)
to ease upgrades but Joss (cc'ed) objected to it. Adding this package is
enough to help apt-get along when hal-cups-utils is installed.
The following packages will be REMOVED:
libept0 python-cupsutils
The following NEW packages will be installed:
cups-pk-helper libxapian22 python-cupshelpers system-config-printer-udev
The following packages will be upgraded:
hal-cups-utils ... system-config-printer ...
75 upgraded, 4 newly installed, 2 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
