Also fine with me, thanks.

One question. Will old packages keep shipping conversion tool using
old name and location for a while? We would otherwise need to rebuild
dicts to use new dependency and avoid FTBFS. Once it is clear that
/usr/bin/convert-bdic is the new path I will add it as preferred path.
