So the first command makes sense, and at least right now we parse conflicts like we do depends- we allow version specifiers. However, I found the oddity with REPLACES when doing some archweb work tonight. Should we be allowing this? Should it be restricted to '=' only like provides? I'm not sure, so please chime in.

I am struggling to think of any case where it would be appropriate to have a version in a replaces entry. Allan
