When upgrading my sid chroot just now, I noticed this message about a

I don't see why a Depends is needed, the Recommends seems fine and the
Replaces should solve the reported bug?
Without the Depends, if someone has gpsdrive < 2.10~pre4-5 and
installs gpsdrive-data, gpsdrive will be removed which is certainly
not the intended behaviour.
Why would gpsdrive be removed, you don't use 'Conflicts: gpsdrive', do you?
Cheers
