Such messages can occur due to some error when dpkg tries to install
a package. For instance, the user tried to upgrade both libmx-1.0-2
and libmx-common from 1.4.5-1 to 1.4.6-1, but the installation of
libmx-1.0-2 1.4.6-1 failed (e.g. because it would lead to some file of
some other package overwritten). So, the system is in an inconsistent
state.
