But most packages won't fail on upgrade:

You also changed the fonts install directory, and therefore in most 
cases the two packages did not have any common files.

The khmeros packages are actually a special case due to 
/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-khmer.conf

This also forces the upgrade of the ttf-arabeyes package, so that a user 
cannot have the same font installed twice.

That makes sense for all fonts-* packages.
