    Drop erroneous and harmful Conflicts/Provides/Replaces on libcatalyst-controller-actionrole-perl.
    
    Since the latter depends on the former, this set of control fields effectively
    makes libcatalyst-controller-actionrole-perl uninstallable in current sid,
    which blocks the migration of libcatalyst-perl to testing.
    
    The Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole functionality was integrated into Catalyst
    proper in version 5.90013, but in a way that requires developers to explicitly
    switch their applications to use the new implementation.
    
    In other words, a migration period is needed, during which it is plausible that
    a Debian system administrator needs to install both Catalyst >= 5.90013 (to run
    a Catalyst application that uses the new implementation) and
    libcatalyst-controller-actionrole-perl (to run another Catalyst application that
    still uses the old implementation).
    
    This is made possible because the two implementations don't conflict on the
    operating system level.
