Hi,
during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install because
it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a replaces
relation.
See policy 7.6 at
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces
From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):
Unpacking libsexp-processor-ruby1.8
