Upgrades have to work in any order or packages have to say otherwise
(breaks, conflicts, replaces, ...) so that isn't really a solution.

Also manpages-dev says:

   * debian/control: add Replace against libaio-dev, because of
     aio_init.3.gz and lio_listio.3.gz (Closes: #636704)

That is only approriate when the files are moved from libaio-dev to
manpages-dev and clearly libaio-dev has not droped those files.

So one or both of the two packages are wrong.
