When do this occur?
Hi
I'm packaging gtk-xemacs and I have used quite a lot from the xemacs package.
But now I got the following error that I'm not able to resolv... :(
When can this happen?

When do dpkg-gencontrol say that there are conflicting values?
And now I have one more quiestion. Is it a good way to have Replaces: xemacs21
in the control file. I mean you should replace xemacs with gtk-xemacs if you
have gnome installed. But if gnome is not installed does it try to
install it then, or does it take the ordinary xemacs package instead.
The gtk-version looks really nice and works fine.
It will conflict with the other xemacs package because I just do not have the
time to patch all makefiles so that it searches for a new directory instead
of /.../xemacs-21...
Well, now I have to go to bed :)
