The problem is that two packages both have the same (by name, at
least) file. I don't know why you would need a pcmcia-modules package
when I've never used one on the laptop at work. Admittedly I normally
use a custom kernel, but I keep a prepackaged one around just in case
I want it sometime for some reason.
