Hi Hilko.  Hey thanks for the bug report.  Looks like it's totally my fault for 
not double checking that this package was not already in Debian under an old 
name.

I think I'll probably ask the FTP Masters very nicely to remove the new package 
rather than mess with the reverse dependencies.


Regards,

Tim.
