There is already a Breaks+Replaces combo, but the versions are too low:

,----
| $ apt-cache show libglib2.0-dev-bin | grep -E '^(Breaks|Replaces)'
| Replaces: libglib2.0-dev (<< 2.51.4-1~)
| Breaks: libglib2.0-dev (<< 2.51.4-1~)
`----

They need to be bumped to 2.53 or so, because glib2.0 2.52.3 ended up in
unstable without the libglib2.0-dev-bin binary package.

Cheers,
