Hi,

I still have to meet somebody who actually ever used GNU Interactive
Tools.

I'd recommend to just conflict with GNU Interactive Tools and be done
with it.

1. It's an upstream decision by Linus
2. You are the maintainer of the package. Just take a stand and put the
bug reports in wontfix mode. 

Being a long time Debian maintainer I'd note that in Debian you've got
to take ownership to get things done.
