TEST CASE: 1) Install mysql-server-4.1 and mysql-client-4.1 from dapper. 2) upgrade to hardy. 3) install the mysql-client and mysql-server packages. 4) observe that the upgrade fails with file conflicts. 5) enable hardy-proposed. 6) try again to install the mysql-client and mysql-server packages. 7) observe that the upgrade completes successfully, with removal of the old mysql-{client,server}-4.1 packages. Regression potential: minimal, since the only change is to declare conflicts/replaces with packages that already have these file conflicts in practice. However, the impact of this bug is also lower than I originally thought, because it can't be triggered on a dapper->hardy upgrade itself since the mysql-client and mysql-server metapackages are /already/ pointing at 5.0 in dapper, and already have the undeclared file conflicts. Therefore this SRU does not need to be accepted prior to the 8.04.1 point release.
