Adding "Replaces:" into debian/control does not actually help.

I think the main problem is that the version 3.0 of udev and libudev1 on
eudev package is considered much older than the versions expected by a
lot of packages that depend on them. For instance, libdevmapper1.02.1
which is currently installed, requires libudev1 (>= 183).

To test that, I did a quick and dirty work around by setting the version
of eudev package to 216-1, so that it is higher than the version of udev
and libudev1 that were installed before, i.e. version 215-17. I could
install udev, libudev1 and libeudev1 but not eudev package. The
following are the last view messages on the eudev installation.

Could anyone suggest me how to debug this further?
