problem when upgrading xlibs

[Marcelo Chiapparini <chiappa@uerj.br>]

Hi!

I am running woody+gnome2.2(Jamie Strandboge's backport). After doing 
an apt-get dist-upgrade I faced with a problem which dpkg suggested to 
correct using the -f options. But I still have a problem with xlibs. 
Here follows the output:

nostromo:/home/chiappa# apt-get -u -f dist-upgrade

What is going wrong?

Thanks in advance for the help!!
