This seems strange to me, we don't really need Breaks semantics here.
Shouldn't we do something like:
Package: ibverbs-providers
Depends: [..], libibverbs1 (= ${binary:Version}),
?
We really do not want to encourage mixing and matching versions.
IIRC the existing breaks is only because of how the new packages
interact with the legacy ones??
