Whenever you see this error, you need to install the package by
passing the --force-overwrite argument to dpkg. You can either go
to your /var/cache/apt directory, find the package file, and install it
with dpkg --install --force-overwrite, or you can look in /etc/dpkg.
There's a config file there (I forget the name, I'm on someone's
'doze box right now so I can't check) where you can put options
that'll be passed to dpkg every time it's run. You should put force-
overwrite in this file. Just add the "force-overwrite" line, don't put "--
" before it in that file or it won't work.
