Title:
Remove Conflicts statements from compat-wireless meta packages

Status in linux-meta source package in Lucid:

Bug description:
SRU Justification
Examining the Lucid and Maverick compat-wireless LBM meta packages it
appears the 'Conflicts:' statements in each of the debian/control.d
flavours is unnecessary. The LBM packages themselves already have the
appropriate 'Conflicts:' statements. Furthermore, they are coded in
only one location in each of the LBM packages (debian/control.d
/flavour-control.stub) which is much simpler to track and update vs 6
or 8 separate files in each of the meta package flavour files.
Impact: For Maverick there is zero impact as the 'Conflicts:'
statements were already commented out. The patch for Maverick just
removed the commented out statements. For Lucid it seems the package
resolver will do the right thing given each compat-wireless-2.6.3X
package has correct 'Conflicts"' statements in its dependencies, thus
there should be no impact.
Test Case: Only valid for Lucid, since Maverick only has the 2.6.36
compat-wireless package. On Lucid, test installing the LBM compat-
wireless meta packages and confirm multiple versions of the compat-
wireless package are not installable at the same time.
