Looks like missing Breaks/Replaces: qgis-plugin-grass (<< VERSION) on 
the qgis package.

When moving files between packages the new package needs Breaks/Replaces 
control fields to inform dpkg about files moved from old packages in new 
packages.

The version to use is the package revision the move was made in, all 
preceding versions will still have the files in the old package.

This is documented in Debian Policy chapter 7:
