Hi Simon! This is indeed the case, though a Breaks/Replaces should work fine to gracefully move ownership of these plugin files from libmysqlclient-dev to its proper place in mysql-server-5.5. Some testing needs to be done to make sure people won't have mysql-server-5.5 pulled in when they upgrade and only have libmysqlclient-dev.
