Interesting. When I search for sudo-ldap under "All software" and
click "install" I get the same dialog as you.

However, if I try to install the .deb file explicitly, e.g.

    $ software-center sudo-ldap_1.8.3p1-1ubuntu3.3_i386.deb

I get an error about the conflict and am not given a chance to
install it.

This is with all 12.04 updates applied.
