Bug#363125: x11-common should conflict with libxft-dev 2.1.8.2-3 as they have colliding files
Package: x11-common
Version: 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6
Severity: normal
Today, when upgrading etch, I got this error with x11-common:
Preparando para reemplazar x11-common 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 (usando .../x11-common_6.9.0.dfsg.1-6_all.deb) ...
Desempaquetando el reemplazo de x11-common ...

It solved when I manually upgraded libxft-dev and tried again. I think the new x11-common should depend or conflict with the corresponding versions of libxft-dev, so apt knows what to do...
