[Bug 1216470] [NEW] ntfs-3g Raring package does not indicate it "replaces ntfsprogs"

[Jon Stumpf]

Public bug reported:

When installing third-party packages that depend on ntfsprogs and
support multiple Ubuntu versions, the dependency check fails on Raring
Ringtail since the ntfs-3g package does not indicate it replaces
ntfsprogs (source: aptitude show ntfs-3g).  I suspect this was
overlooked in Raring as ntfsprogs was dropped (not provided) in Raring.
Unfortunately, some third-party packages will still address ntfsprogs
for sometime and it would be helpful if ntfs-3g would satisfy the
dependency.

I have filed a bug with the third-party provider as well.
