Severity: serious
Version: 2013.1113-1

Hi,

I'm no more awake enough to fix this myself now, so I thought, I'd
better document this:

[...]
Unpacking libtime-parsedate-perl (2013.1113-1) ...
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/libtime-parsedate-perl_2013.1113-1_all.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man3/Time::ParseDate.3pm.gz', which is also in package libtime-modules-perl 2011.0517-1

Unpacking libtime-modules-perl (2013.1113-1) over (2011.0517-1) ...
[...]

I think there's a "Replaces" header missing.
