The current control is:
Package: libpinyin13-dev
Provides: libpinyin-dev
Conflicts: libpinyin-dev
And after checking the policy, I think it falls to the following case
described in policy:
Conflicts should be used
..
* in conjunction with Provides when only one package providing a given
virtual facility may be unpacked at a time (see Virtual packages - Provides),
So I think we don't need to Conflicts libpinyin7-dev.
