libwxgtk2.4-python_2.4.3.1_i386.deb

The referenced package, libwxgtk2.4-python_2.4.3.1_i386.deb, has
remained in 'aptitude's "Upgradable Packages" sections for months.

Though I attempted to find a way to eliminate this error via "trying
things" and searching the WWW for solutions, it remains.

Here's what happens when I try to update it:

  Preparing to replace libwxgtk2.4-python 2.4.2.6
    (using .../libwxgtk2.4-python_2.4.3.1_i386.deb) ...
  Unpacking replacement libwxgtk2.4-python ...
  dpkg: error processing 
    /var/cache/apt/archives/libwxgtk2.4-python_2.4.3.1_i386.deb (--unpack):
    trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/helpviewer', which is also in package wxpython2.5.3
  dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/libwxgtk2.4-python_2.4.3.1_i386.deb
  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
  Ack!  Something bad happened while installing packages.  Trying to recover:

Thanks for your ideas!
