The "Replaces:" Field

[David Lloyd <dlloyd@microbits.com.au>]

I don't know if this is the right forum to ask, but I want to replace:

lloy0076@cirith:/usr/share/apps/ksplash/pics$ ls
                       splash_bottom.png        splash_top.png
splash_active_bar.png  splash_inactive_bar.png  splash_top.png.backup

..with my own but they are owned by "kdebase". Naturally, the simple
package I rolled complained.

I did some reading and came across the "Replaces:" field but can't quite
work its syntax out.

I've got:

..
Replaces: kdebase
..

however I'm sure that's not the right thing to do.

*hmmm*
