No, I am talking about rename the *package* name, like from libscim8 to libscim8c102 (altough you need to change the version as well). > I can't see any libscim8 in sarge so I don't see > how I can make a conflict. I'm talking about conflicting with libscim8 in unstable. See the announcement in debian-devel-announce mailing list (around July or August) for the reason why this is necessary.
