Bug#697697: ecere-sdk: binary package conflict with eclib

Package: ecere-sdk, eclib
Severity: important

ecere-sdk and eclib packages both have binary package libec0.

Please help resolve this conflict.

Both are "Library for modular symbols and elliptic curves over Q", but I
am not sure if the two packages are the same or different sources, and
how to name them.

The options are:
1) ecere-sdk drops the package & build-deps on the eclib one
2) eclib is dropped in favor of ecere-sdk
3) ecere-sdk renames its libec0 to something else
4) eclib renames its libec0 to something else
5) both rename libec0 to something else, and possibly both Provides:
libec0 (if compatible)

Also, we should decide above in context when/where we want to implement
this: wheezy and jessie. BTW Ubuntu already synced both packages, so the
clash is more evident there.

Regards,

Dmitrijs.
