retitle 219010 tct: please cooperate with sleuthkit
severity 219010 important
thanks

sleuthkit and tct no longer conflict.  Sleuthkit includes an
alternatives mechanism for those files which used to exist in both
packages.  But, alternatives are only useful when there are multiple
cooperating packages; right now, there is only one.  Also, the current
state of things allows debsums to needlessly report false positives:

$ aptitude remove tct sleuthkit
$ aptitude install tct
$ aptitude install sleuthkit
$ debsums tct |grep mact
$ debsums tct |grep -vw OK$
/usr/bin/mactime                                                          FAILED
/usr/bin/ils                                                              FAILED
/usr/share/man/man1/ils.1.gz                                              FAILED
/usr/share/man/man1/mactime.1.gz                                          FAILED

Not only that, but the previous "alternatives" configuration is
effectively ignored (although changes are not permanently lost..).
