Thanks all! I'll use the Conflicts approach.

In similar situations I've used something like
Conflicts: package-doc < 6.0.0

You just asked the same question that I did. :-)
I think the Obsoletes line is correct. Once I get a ruling on that
from the experts, I'll add it to the package.

During recent major version update, some files were moved from
<package>-doc to <package>, and as a result updates of <package>
fail due to a file conflict. Manual update of <package>-doc
resolves this, of course.
A simple solution would be to declare that <package>
Required: package-doc >= 6.0.0
but that would force the install of the docs package if it wasn't
already there.
Is there a way to declare a dependency only if the other package is
present/installed? Would
Obsoletes: package-doc < 6.0.0
be the right thing to do?
