Could I have some advice about the best way to fix this one please? Here's a summary:
* The obsolete package "aleph" is supserseded by "afnix". * I've requested the removal of aleph from unstable (bug #389163). * There is already another RC bug against "aleph", as it conflicts with tetex-bin. I didn't make afnix "Replaces:" aleph because aleph is scheduled for removal. I guess I should have done? What would be best - uploading a new version of afnix, or marking this bug as blocked by 389163?
