What conflict does it create? Can't you just change names of files or directories in your package to get rid of this conflict? Generally, if you don't want to make newer version of this tool, there should be no conflict. Even if you want to, there still shoudl not be any, because newer package (with the same name) would replace this one.

Ok, that explained a lot. My suggestion: Create empty package (with no files or with one file etc) with name automatikwlan and version above 0.6.2 (0.7 maybe) and give it category other than "user/something", for example "libs" or "garbage" (this will hide it in app manager for people who haven't installes it already). Also, remove icon and everything from this package (so noone will install it by accident). And make it depend on the correct package phonesfera-theme (in case someone already installed the other one, now after update automatikwlan will not mess up anything and pull phonesfera-theme as dependancy, so all users will later update only phonesfera-theme package after next updates).

Did you understand me?

I'm new with respect to the creation of packages. I'm having trouble with my subject, I do not think I can do what you say xD

Edit : I'm new in this

OK, please wait till tommorow, I will send you some more detailed instructions via PM

Packaging apps for publishing in extras is painful, I understand why you have problems xP I've today finished my fight with making xdotool package compile and create properly by autobuilder, that was awful... Anyway, I'm off to sleep, see you tommorow
