Is it possible/does it make sense to coinstall php-pear-Foo and php-ezc-Foo or are they mutually exclusive?
No.
Or rephrased, if another package requires Foo, can both serve up? If this is the case then we probably need to think about solutions with virtual dependencies.
Both provides same goals : a class to manage mail in PHP
But both implementation are really different. - php-pear-Mail only provide simple "send" methods - php-ezc-Mail provide (complex) send and receive methods
Of course a projet should use only one.
