Bug#608655: scotch and gbase: error when trying to install together

Hello,

Apologies for the oversight when renaming these binaries for the last
upload.

I think the scotch user base will expect the standard name of the gbase
binary.  So there are a couple of options: conflict with gbase, or
use /etc/alternatives.

Is there a way in popcon to see how many users install both of these?
It seems like the database should support this.  Hmm, the Homepage
listed in control is dead, and a search for "gbase gnome" turns up very
little, so it's hard for me to guess the overlap.  If there's little to
no overlap, then Conflicts is easier...

-Adam
