Thanks for reporting this. I have now set this package to conflicts with gimp-plugin-registry. The alternative would have been to remove it from the archive but I'm reluctant to do this. People that may want just this plugin should not be obliged to download an hefty "container" package which, amongst other, requires a 40 MB library package.
