This is buggy.  These files were split from sbuild into libsbuild-perl.
However, the versioned Replaces hid the fact that they weren't removed
from sbuild until now.  They both share the same source package, but
due to the Replaces the duplication didn't show up when I tested it.

I'll fix this ASAP.

Roger
