Title:
  missing Breaks/Replaces

Status in “xmlrpc-c” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The xmlrpc-c binary packages have been reorganised in the upload with
  binaries currently waiting in NEW.  Some of these overlap with
  binaries that were previously in Ubuntu (they may have been Ubuntu-
  specific), and not all the required Breaks/Replaces fields are
  present.  In particular, I believe you need:

    libxmlrpc-c++4 Breaks/Replaces: libxmlrpc-c3-0 (<< 1.16.33-3.1ubuntu1)
    libxmlrpc-core-c3 Breaks/Replaces: libxmlrpc-core-c3-0 (<< 1.16.33-3.1ubuntu1)

  (Some of the binaries in this source package already use
  Conflicts/Replaces pairs for similar purposes.  This is discouraged by
  the Debian policy manual nowadays in favour of Breaks/Replaces,
  although quite a few packages still use the older incorrect approach.)
