I agree that this issue must be solved somehow. libnet10 is deprecated, so one
may think that it is a good idea to let it be obsoleted. However there may still
be softwares that use the old interface, for example the previous release of
intuitively used that interface, until sept 2004. I don't know of security issue
with libnet10. Forcing upstream to use the new interface shouldn't be that bad,
though. 

Maybe the best thing would have been to have parallel installable libs, but as
it is not the case I am wondering whether it wouldn't be better to have
conflicts: tags such that users are forced to remove libnet10 by hand, let some
time flow and change conflicts to obsoletes?
