Given that there isn't actually any conflict, that the two libraries
are in different "domains" (one C/C++, the other html/javascript), and
that neither of them appears to be heavily used (though the lib used
in yast seems to get many more google hits), wouldn't a simple note in
the project description be enough?  Any actual renaming seems likely
to cause more problems than it solves.

E.g.:
   "... package description ...

   Note: this library shouldn't be confused with the 'libjs-yui' package,
   which is the 'yahoo user interface library' for javascript. "

[and a similar note in the libjs-yui package description.]

It's libjs-yui instead.

"libyastui" would seem sort of misleading -- from the description, it
sounds like libyui isn't part of yast, but rather an independent
library upon which yast depends.

Also, there isn't actually a "libyui-js" package...

the package for the Yahoo! User Interface toolkit is called libyui-js 
which is bound to cause confusion.  Can you rename yours to maybe 
libyastui or something?
