Not sure if Debian actually has a guideline for naming conflicts. Debian
happily uses "Conflicts:"
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-conflicts
while Fedora tries to avoid it whenever possible:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Conflicts

If Debian uses it, Ubuntu will use it too. ;)

We don't use alternatives that much in Fedora. I suggest to stick with
trash-put, but on the other hand I wouldn't really mind trash. Should be up to
the maintainer I think.
