[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#599474: policykit-1: should surely conflict with policykit

Package: policykit-1
Version: 0.96-3
Severity: serious

Trying to investigate an issue with permissions on removable drives,
and with the stable repo available from my squeeze box, a quick search
fro "policykit" in aptitude brings a "policykit" package (which I did
not notice was only available from stable).  Thinking polkit had not
been installed for an obscure reason, I installed the package
successfully, just to notice by chance that the new package is
policykit-1.

* this is confusing
* it may possibly break something
* we surely don't want that old package to be left isntalled when
  upgrading from lenny

I hope that makes the severity adequate.
