In squeeze for the i386, the wacom-related packages are wacom-tools and
xserver-xorg-input-wacom. But it is impossible to install both of them.

wacom-tools is at version 0.8.3.2-1 in both squeeze and sid, whereas
xserver-xorg-input-wacom is at verion is at version 0.10.3+20100109-1.

Back in lenny, both packages had the same version number, 0.7.9.3-2, so
the growing discrepancy is suspicious. Firthermore, when looking at the
package description for xserver-xorg-input-wacom from with in aptitude, I
am tole:

--\ Conflicts (1)
---wacom-tools (<= 0.8.3.2-1)

so the two packages are in conflict. Nothing new seems to be in the
pipeline to squeeze from sid; the versin numbers are the same in both
distros. It doesn't seem as if waiting a few days will alleviate the
situation in squeeze.

Where should this be reported, and what is to be done about it?

By the way, does anyone know which version(s) of the wacom kernel module
is in the current squeeze and sid kernels?
