Yes, compare it to all those WWW servers: They normally use TCP port 80, but it's common practice in Debian to allow them to be installed in parallel. Same for all those IKE daemons: they normally use UDP port 500, but you can configure them to use different ports; adding a Conflics: would prohibit installing them in parallel. According to Debian policy 7.4: > Neither `Breaks' nor `Conflicts' should be used unless two packages > cannot be installed at the same time or installing them both causes > one of them to be broken or unusable. Having similar functionality or > performing the same tasks as another package is not sufficient reason > to declare `Breaks' or `Conflicts' with that package. Please either decide for one IKE daemon and un-install all other daemons, or configure them to properly use different UDP ports. Thus I tag this bug as 'wontfix'.
