There is a bug report about this :
http://cgi.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=49347
It sounds like you should be able to do this within Debian, save
for this "conflicts" problem. You could perhaps get both, and force
the other one in using "force-conflicts" option of dpkg, but this
tends to void the warranty :)
Or wait til the bug gets fixed.
