python3-redfish declares Conflicts with python3-ilorest. This violates
Debian policy section 10.1:

| Two different packages must not install programs with different
| functionality but with the same filenames.

Whilst it says programs here, that easily translates to libraries. One
of them needs to be renamed.

The libraries python-redfish and python-ilorest are not compatible.

python-ilorest is a fork from Hewlett Packard from 2016. Since then, it has
been developed separately and incompatible.

python-redfish is still active and is being actively developed by the
Distributed Management Task Force (dmtf.org).

I contacted the maintainer of python-ilorest and asked if he could adapt the
namespace.
