Yes, intl is meant to replace idn and to make it backwards-compatible a couple of functions are exported under the same name, causing the conflict. > This package has been removed from unstable, but maybe we should do in > stable what we did in unstable: > - update the libphp-simplepie dependency to php5-intl That's up to whoever is behind libphp-simplepie. -idn also provided a few other functions which -intl doesn't. > - make php5-intl conflict with php5-idn No. It's a runtime conflict and therefore policy's "don't add a Breaks/Conflict" recommendation applies. However, the conflict was meant to be handled by the extensions manager, but that's another story...
