The current practice is having a virtual package with appropriate conflicts/provides/replaces; or providing a way to configure listening port at installation time; or finally having the daemon disabled at installation time, so requiring a postinst handy configuration - what ever is more appropriate. At least in three cases (ftpd, httpd, radius, telnetd) currently is used a virtual package. So probably it is the most appropriate choice in respect with current policy. The point is that with the *default* configuration unbound does not complete the installation when another name server is installed. And this could be considered a serious bug.
