That depends on which package is supposed to ship
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/backports/__init__.py
If python-backports-shutil-get-terminal-size should own this file
(1.0.0-2 still ships it), it must "take it over" from package
python-backports.ssl-match-hostname with Breaks+Replaces.

PS: I slightly doubt that *any* package should ship
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/backports/__init__.py, except maybe
something like python-backports-common
