A good solution IMO is to keep a fake (empty) package of
radiusd-freeradius that depends on the new freeradius package, that way,
if someone does have it installed, apt-get will try to upgrade it and
then install the new package. You'll have to dump the Conflicts though,
or else apt-get won't let you upgrade a package that'll be removed on
the same run.

Hope I've been helpful

Cheers
