[JP Sugarbroad <taral@taral.net>]

Package: libc6-i386
Version: 2.6-1
Severity: important

Preparing to replace libc6-i386 2.5-11 (using .../libc6-i386_2.6-1_amd64.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libc6-i386 ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6-i386_2.6-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite `/usr/lib32', which is also in package lib32z1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6-i386_2.6-1_amd64.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
A package failed to install.  Trying to recover:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libc6-dev-i386:
 libc6-dev-i386 depends on libc6-i386 (= 2.6-1); however:
  Version of libc6-i386 on system is 2.5-11.
dpkg: error processing libc6-dev-i386 (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
 libc6-dev-i386

Worked around by removing lib32z1 first, then reinstalling it.
