Package: libguava-java
Version: 13.0.1-3
Severity: normal

Context: https://lists.debian.org/debian-java/2013/06/msg00061.html

Basically, libguava-java superseeds libgoogle-collections-java.  If
libguava-java can take over libgoogle-collections-java (in a backwards
compatible manner) we can immediately remove the old
libgoogle-collections-java source.

It is my understanding that libguava-java's API is a superset of
libgoogle-collections-java and they (codewise) should be compatible.
It should "just" be a question of keeping old packages buildable and
running.
