Bug#362524: missing conflict on xearth



Hi David,

I appreciate your prompt reply.  I imagine you and the rest of the
X11-packaging team must be feeling a bit under fire at the moment.
I'd like to let you know that your efforts are greatly appreciated,
nonetheless.

OK.  I did actually have x11-common installed.  I removed the symlink
and ran dpkg-reconfigure x11-common and the link came back.  Thanks
for this.

By the way, the dpkg-reconfigure spit out the following error

  /var/lib/dpkg/info/x11-common.postinst: line 918: [: too many arguments

[this is x11-common 7.0.12].  If this isn't part of the "bug or two"
that you are already aware of, you might want to have a look.

Cheers,
-Steve
