Hello Debian X Strike Force,

There is an error when upgrading x11-common from sarge to etch,

  Selecting previously deselected package x11-common.
  (Reading database ... 88175 files and directories currently installed.)
  Unpacking x11-common (from .../x11-common_1%3a7.0.22_i386.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/x11-common_1%3a7.0.22_i386.deb
   trying to overwrite `/usr/X11R6/bin', which is also in package grace6
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/x11-common_1%3a7.0.22_i386.deb
  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Sarge grace6 includes the file /usr/X11R6/man/man1/xmgrace.1x.gz

Cheers,
