The Conflicts field is in place nowadays, as well as the Replaces field:

coreutils (7.5-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * new upstream version
    - fix ls -1 output error (Closes: #539476)
    - new program "stdbuf"
    - chroot adds --userspec and --groups
    - cp adds --reflink
    - sort adds --human-numeric-sort
    - tail --follow uses inotify
  * update package description (Closes: #535458)
  * tweak section and priority for mktemp package
  * conflict with package "timeout". I think coreutils timeout is just
    different enough that it shouldn't replace that package.

The timeout package has been gone for long enough now that it seems
unlikely that there's much more that can reasonably be done here.

** Changed in: coreutils (Ubuntu)
       Status: Triaged => Fix Released
