Followup-For: Bug #779584
Control: found -1 2.4.5-2

Hi,

the recently added Replaces is not sufficient to properly fix this bug,
it needs a corresponding Breaks as well. Otherwise installing and
removing libflint-2.4.5 will cause a previously installed
libflint-2.4.4 to be crippled (some files will be missing afterwards)
instead of being removed.

>From the attached log:

0m47.8s ERROR: FAIL: After purging files have disappeared:
  /usr/share/flint/CPimport.txt  owned by: libflint-2.4.5

0m47.8s ERROR: FAIL: After purging files have been modified:
  /var/lib/dpkg/info/libflint-2.4.4.list         not owned
