[Bug 1240600] [NEW] package flightgear-data-base 2.10.0-2 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/games/flightgear/Scenery/Terrain/w130n30/w123n37/59CA.btg.gz', which is also in package fgfs-scenery-base 2.6.0-1.1

[Impact]

 * Users who have the flightgear/simgear/fgfs-base packages installed on Raring and
   earlier will be unable to successfully update flightgear (et al.) to the version in
   Saucy.

 * This is partially because due to the renaming of the fgfs-base package to
   flightgear-data, Breaks and Replaces had to be added to allow the transition. However, 
   the Breaks in the flightgear-data-base package didn't include all packages.

 * This bug was fixed in 2.10.0-3, which is currently in Trusty. This fix needs to be
   applied to Saucy.

[Test Case]

 * On Raring, install flightgear. This will automatically install
simgear and fgfs-base.

 * Upgrade to Saucy.

 * An error message will come up saying that flightgear couldn't be upgraded because
   the new flightgear-data-base package couldn't be cleanly installed.

[Regression Potential]

 * None; the worst case scenario is that users will still be unable to
upgrade.
