apt-get install error
I installed libwxgtk2.2-python, which upgraded a lot of other packages
in the process and now I have an apt-get problem. There was an error
during the install and running apt-get -f install returns:
# apt-get -f install

dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libzvt2_1.4.1.3-2_i386.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite `/usr/sbin/gnome-pty-helper', which is also in package gnome-bin
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/libzvt2_1.4.1.3-2_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
I have moved /usr/sbin/gnome-pty-helper to a different name but I guess
apt looks in the database and sees the file.
How do I get out of this mess?
Thanks,
Steve
