Package: libhttp-date-perl
Version: 6.00-1
Severity: serious

Hi,

Typical kfreebsd-amd64 experimental system.  From today's upgrade
(transcribed by hand, alas):

| Unpacking libhttp-date-perl (from .../libhttp-date-perl_6.00-1_all.deb) ...
| dpkg: error processing //var/cache/apt/archives/libhttp-date-perl_6.00-1_all.deb (--install):
|  trying to overwrite '/usr/share/perl5/HTTP/Date.pm', which is also in package libwww5.808-perl 5.808-4
| Errors were encountered while processing:
|  //var/cache/apt/archives/libhttp-date-perl_6.00-1_all.deb

Perhaps there is a missing Breaks+Replaces.

Thanks; I love how CPAN modules are packaged.
Jonathan
