Consider the following sequence of events:

        1. Install squeeze, including abby.
        2. Upgrade.

Then abby stops functioning.  A simple "Breaks" added to cclive would
avoid trouble.

Debian supports mixtures of packages between two successive releases,
since that is what makes upgrades just work.  The same considerations
would apply if abby in wheezy worked with cclive in wheezy, rather
than abby having been removed.

The only complication is that abby's "cclive --version" check is a bit
insane, but why not help users when we can?
