I got this error when I tried to upgrade my potato today:
---
Preparing to replace base-files 2.1.10 (using
.../base-files_2.1.11_all.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement base-files ...
dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/base-files_2.1.11_all.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite `/etc/inputrc', which is also in package

Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/base-files_2.1.11_all.deb
