I already saw the changelog comment, however.

This should be done automatically. After all thats what a dependecy is
for. Maybe I'm overlooking something but I don't see a problem to have

Depends: amarok-engines (=<amarok-version>) | amarok-engine (=<amarok-version>)

Which would solve this problem, without creating a circular dependecy.
The same with a conflict, I think ( a conflict with amarok-engine <
<amarok-version>)
