No need to be removed first, you can simply make the new package
conflict with the old binary ones and, after getting the new ones in sid
requesting the removal of the old ones.

Of course it is good to have a dummy package to ease upgrade, but I'm
not sure this is needed if we did not have a release with that package
yet.

See ya!
