Or by adding a Breaks:/Replaces:, to clean up. But this is a bit
tricky as people might actually want to install the (future) real
g-c-c in parallel, so they need to be versioned to the saucy version.

Yes, that menu item. For me it didn't do anything after the upgrade,
because that dist-upgrade removed gnome-control-center.
