Thanks for the report Christophe.

As rudder-jetty installs jetty in another path, it is designed to not conflict (in the "doesn't work" sense, not the packaging sense). I think the only conflicting elements are the init.d script and the default file. If so, then ticket #4363 has planned to rename these items (to, for example "rudder-jetty"), and then both packages could happily live together in the future :) Do you agree with the long term plan?

I agree that for current versions, these packages break each other, so we need to "warn" about this by introducing a "Conflicts: jetty" field. I'll get on that.
