angband-data needs to conflict with and replace older versions of
angband.

Thank you. I don't understand how piuparts said all tests passed and
let this through, but I assume this is an edge case of a new package
conflicting with an existing package. We live and learn. I'm building
3.3.2-2 now, and if my mentor forgives this error it should be uploaded
shortly ;-)
