+ While upgrading from Ubuntu 6.06.1 to Ubuntu 6.10, with Opera installed
from the dapper-commercial repository, I received an error message:
This upgrade requires that the /usr/X11R6/bin
This bug is not a bug in update-manager, because update-manager denied

Sourcepackagename:
This bug needs to be fixed in opera. The script does not check only the
contents of /usr/X11R6/bin but also what's recorded in the package

usr/X11R6/bin before dapper. That means that opera package in commercial
repo is wrong.
