Re: New dpkg overwrite behaviour undesirable

[bruce@pixar.com (Bruce Perens)]

You can add the --force-overwrite flag to make this a complaint rather
than an abort. I think Ian was attempting to get the problems fixed by
being draconian about them. I don't think this is going to work for the
public or beta 1.1 upgrade, though. We might have to wire --force-overwrite
on before then.
