Ugh.  The soname of libaspell15 did not change from 0.50 -> 0.60, but
maybe it should have.  Although the external API/ABI did not change, the
'aspell' binary uses internal library symbols that did change.  The only
thing I could do at this time is make the current libaspell15 conflict
with aspell-bin (<< 0.60), but that's pretty clumsy.  Fortunately, it's
not a release crtical bug since it does not affect woody -> sarge
partial upgrades (woody doesn't have libaspell15).

A better solution for the future is probably to make aspell-bin depend
on the exact same version of libaspell15, instead of relying on shlibs
to do a >= dependency.
