Check the BTS.
I think version -7 fixes the conflicting file problem.
I haven't seen a mention of this exact error message, but the
python-python2.3 relationship has been discussed quite a bit on
debian-python. There are reasons for and against a "backwards"
dependecy on python from python2.3. This has been changing back and
forth as various interactions and relationships are discovered and
attempts are made to solve all of the problems simultaneously. (that
is, thus far solving one problem has created a new one, and
vice-versa)
The debian-python archives and the BTS have all the information to
date.
