I'd just use "apt-get install exim4-daemon-heavy" instead.
This should replace your -daemon-light packages automatically
as that's what package management is for. :-)

$ apt-cache show exim4-deamon-heavy

In addition to the features already supported by exim4-daemon-light
this version of the Exim daemon includes extra features such as LDAP,
PostgreSQL and MySQL data lookups, SPA SMTP authentication and embedded
Perl interpreter.
.
Additionally this package includes a plugin to use the embedded
Perl-interpreter for Exim's local_scan interface.
.
This package features the exiscan-acl patch
http://duncanthrax.net/exiscan-acl/ for integration of
virus-scanners and spamassassin.

As Debian ships the config in a separate package (exim4-config)
there should be no need for this. Just install -daemon-heavy
and it will use your current config.
