Hi:

  I am running Woody. I tried to replace gs-aladdin with gs
  and apt-get seems to have a problem with it. It comes up
  with

  error process ... gs-common_0.3.2_all.deb (--unpack)
  trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/bdftops', which is
  also in package ghostscript.

  All attempts with apt-get -f install or apt-get install
  --fix-missing don't get me anywhere. Neither does dpkg
  get me anywhere.

  Looking at /var/lib/dpkg/status gives me:

  gs-aladdin purge OK not installed
  gs install OK unpacked
  gs-common install OK not installed

  Fortunately all my programs are working OK, which puzzles me,
  because they require gs, and the gs of gs-aladdin should have been
  removed. 

  Is there a safe way of proceeding?
  Thanks for any suggestions.

  Sebastian.
