I never used Breaks: before. Do I need something like:

Package: libpisock9
Breaks: kpilot (<< 4:4.2.4-1), gnome-pilot (<< 2.0.15-2.4), etc.

How do I get the exact release number of the broken packages? I you
upload kpilot 4:4.2.4-2 to unstable but still linked with the old
version of libpisock9 the breaks rule will be incorrect.

Or maybe I should only take care of version numbers of the broken
packages in Lenny and only support the Lenny -> Squeeze upgrade?

Thanks
