dpkg is not the right tool to test non-trivial upgrade scenarios. And Breaks/Replaces are non-trivial.

So you will either need a transition (binNMU libreoffice, probably sourceful update the two packages in Suggests, fonts-sil-padauk and grcompiler) or a transitional package. Having -dev installed would probably make the difference as it will add the dependency on 2-3.
