[config-package-dev] migration of diverted files from one package to another?

[Patrick Schleizer]

Hi,

let's say you have a few displaced files in package "a", which is
already installed. Now you plan to upgrade package "a" and to move the
displaced files to package "b". While package "a" depends on/or
recommends package "b".

Are such cases supported or could any maintainer scripts have clashing
dpkg-diversions or issues like that?

Cheers,
Patrick
