Fwiw, on the dpkg side, another way out of the situation would be to
dpkg-divert the files away. Given that both packages provide the same
functionality, just different versions, that might be a nice way to
handle the problem.

Just renaming everything might be easier to handle, though.

Anyway, waiting for your ideas :)
