Package: x11-common
Version: 1:7.0.22
Severity: important

Hi, I'm pasting a part of an IRC session:

<kpearce> with -f install, I get the x configuration screens, and then:
<kpearce> xserver-xorg config warning: Migrating xserver-xfree86 debconf values to
<kpearce>    xserver-xorg.
<kpearce> (Reading database ... 141948 files and directories currently installed.)

<kpearce> Errors were encountered while processing:

<kpearce> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

... perhaps x11-common should conflict this old package.

Regards,
Zoran

Closing this bug as invalid, as packages not in stable/testing are not 
supported. xserver-common-v3 is only in oldstable.
