The conflict won't be resolved until gtksourceview 1.0.1-4 is uploaded
into unstable and that won't happen until a server admin manually
changes the override file (I separated the documentation into a
a new libgtksourceview-doc package).

In the meantime you can always use:
	# dpkg -i force-overwrite package.deb
to force a package to overwrite files belonging to another.

Yours sincerely,
Andrew "Netsnipe" Lau
