Bug#952638: libx11-dev: Uninstallable due to conflict of installed files

[Jean-Philippe MENGUAL <jpmengual@debian.org>]

Package: libx11-dev
Version: 2:1.6.9-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Hi

Sorry for the noise, the problem may be due to my suystem, but I really dont
understand

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

I try to install build-deo orca
This package depends on x11proto-dev

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

apt build-dep orca

   * What was the outcome of this action?

libx1-dev does not install.
"Attemting to replace /usr/include/X11/extensions/XKBgeom.h which lelongs to
x11proto-dev too"

Strangely, apt-file search XKBgeom.h only reports it as being in x1proto-dev.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

*** End of the template - remove these template lines ***

Is that my status file broken? Or a bug here?

Thanks for your feedback 

Best regards
