If that version is not compatible either the package name should be
changed (to not satisfy the Depends from the old josm/gpsprune), or the
new version should declare Breaks against the old reverse-deps, to make
sure they're upgraded together.

Are there plans to also upload compatible josm and gpsprune versions to
experimental?
