Bug#370088: x11-common: Please conflict with ghostview
Package: x11-common
Version: 1:7.0.20
Severity: normal
ghostview isn't available in sarge or later releases, but is available
in woody. This package installs into /usr/X11R6/bin and so if present
will break the x11-common upgrade.
$ dpkg --contents ghostview_1.5-27_powerpc.deb | grep usr/X11

Please conflict with ghostscript to avoid this problem.
BTW, there may be other packages in woody causing similar problems.
