hi branden,

a question for you about xlibs, if you've got a moment. when i try to
install it it fails, complaining that:

        dpkg: error processing
        /var/cache/apt/archives/xlibs_4.0.2-1_i386.deb (--install): trying
        to overwrite /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults', which is also in
        package xwave
        dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)

anyway, that directory is "owned" by several packages - why would i get an
error installing one of them? 

any input will be appreciated. :)

thanks,

aaron.
