Problem installing a package with dpkg



I'm trying to install the xlib6g package and am
getting the following error:

dpkg: error processing xlib6g_3.3.2.2-1.deb
(--install):
 trying to overwrite
'/usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6.3', which is also in
package xlib6
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal
(Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
 xlib6g_3.3.2.2-1.deb

I've been through all the man/--help pages and I
have no idea how to fix/avoid this. If you have
any suggestions, please email me.

thanks in advance.
