Indeed. old xulrunner-dev Depends: libmozjs-dev

Yep.

What I needed for upgrade was:
dpkg -P --force-depends libmozjs-dev
(installed xulrunner still wants it.)
apt-get -f install
(dist-upgrade complains about the now not fullfilled xulrunner-dev -> 
libmozjs-dev
dependency)

So yes, that Conflicts is definitely needed besides the obvious 
Provides/Replaces

Regards,

Rene
