[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#643657: puppet-el: should not conflict with earlier versions of puppet client

Package: puppet-el
Severity: normal

The 'puppet-el' package conflicts with any earlier version of the 'puppet'
package.  This doesn't reflect reality, because you may not be editing manifests
for the same client version that you happen to be running.  For instance, I
wanted to pin the puppet client on my sid machine to the squeeze version to
prevent version mismatches with my squeeze puppetmaster.  However, once I do
this, I also have to pin puppet-el, which should not be necessary.
