I am running a debian woody mixing stable and testing and very random few unstable packages with the 2.4.24 kernel. I just did an apt-get -u dist-upgrade and there was a couple upgrades none seemed very significant but it bombed out at the end. Now it bombs out everytime i do an upgrade and a couple things seem broken like my openoffice stopped working. Seems to be a conflict with the xlibmesa3 upgrade and my existing libGLU.so.1.3 package?
Here is the output: S# apt-get -u dist-upgrade Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Calculating Upgrade... Done The following packages have been kept back: scrollkeeper The following packages will be upgraded: xlibmesa3 1 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.

It sounds like you have to force the install like (one line):
dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/xlibmesa3_4.1.0-16woody3_i386.deb
