These packages can be unpacked concurrently, because there is no
relevant Replaces or Conflicts relation. Attempting to unpack these
packages concurrently results in an unpack error from dpkg, because none
of the packages installs a diversion for the affected files.
Please figure out which of these packages should properly own the
affected files and reassign the bug as appropriate. When doing so,
please add the other package to the set of affected packages using
"Control: affects -1 + <packagename>" to avoid the filing of duplicates.
The other package should stop installing the files. In case the files
are being moved between packages, Breaks and Replaces should be
declared. In this case, please refer to policy section 7.6 for details.
