Camille, probably you know most clearly how the transition from
sgml-tools to openjade+docbook-utils is done; is the above true?
(openjade & dbk-utils both provides a part of sgmltools)

I'm not quite sure if it's a bug or a design flaw :)

Flepied, is such kind of situation solvable? Not only openjade &
docbook-utils, similar situation do appear in apache-conf /
apache2-common too (apache-conf obsoletes apache-common, so it obsoletes
any other package that provides apache-common).
