Package: redeclipse-common
Version: 1.5.5-1
Severity: serious

Dear Maintainer,

upgrading redeclipse-common from 1.5.1-2 to 1.5.5-1 fails for me as
follows:

Unpacking redeclipse-common (1.5.5-1) over (1.5.1-2) ...
dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-R5cuNe/15-redeclipse-common_1.5.5-1_all.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/share/doc/redeclipse/guidelines.txt', which is also in package redeclipse 1.5.1-2

There seem to be Breaks/Replaces header missing for moving that file
(and maybe further ones) from redeclipse to redeclipse-common.
