It must be noted that you should not manually remove files that are part of a package.
I really know better than to do that :) But it was just a man page, so I figured it would do no serious harm if I tried it. The dpkg --force-overwrite command did the trick; I then did 'dpkg -r pine', which removed pine but not the files in common with alpine, and all is well. Patrick
