Package: guitar
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
The upgrade of package "x11-common" to version 7.0.20 requires to remove /usr/X11R6/bin (a new path has been chosen), but tha package "guitar" claims that it is his path, so x11-common cannot be upgraded.
I success to remove guitar by modifying the file /var/lib/dpkg/info/guitar.list : I modify the line /usr/X11R5/bin to /usr/X11R5/bin_whatyouwant.
Then, the package "guitar" accepts to be removed, and the package "x11-common" can be upgraded without complain.

The guitar package is no longer present in Debian, so I'm closing this bug
since it won't be fixed.
