Hello J G,

J G Miller [2012-03-05 12:47 +0100]:
>   dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/cups-filters_1.0.2-1_i386.deb (--unpack):
>         trying to overwrite '/etc/fonts/conf.d/99pdftoopvp.conf', which is also in package cups 1.5.2-5

I'm puzzled by this. cups dropped that file in version 1.5.0-16, which
is the version cups-filters has Replaces/Breaks: for. How did you
manage to install cups 1.5.2-5 without also having cups-filters
installed? It's a strict dependency.

Or did you perhaps only copy above part from the full apt-get
dist-upgrade log? Did the full upgrade involve an upgrade of cups as
well?

Thanks,

Martin
