[Registry] [Bug 697097] Re: package pidgin-data 1:2.7.7-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/pixmaps/pidgin/protocols/48/facebook.png', which is also in package pidgin-facebookchat 1.67.1-1

This might only happen if you have pidgin-facebookchat installed (as I
did). If you remove pidgin-facebookchat and then update it works.
However I found that:

  sudo aptitude remove pidgin-facebookchat

failed with the first solution:

  Upgrade the following packages:
  pidgin-data [1:2.7.7-1ubuntu0+pidgin1.10.04 (now) -> 
1:2.7.9-1ubuntu0+pidgin1.10.04 (lucid)]

but worked with the second:

  Downgrade the following packages:
  pidgin [1:2.7.9-1ubuntu0+pidgin1.10.04 (lucid, now) -> 1:2.6.6-1ubuntu4.3 
(lucid-proposed)]
  pidgin-data [1:2.7.7-1ubuntu0+pidgin1.10.04 (now) -> 1:2.6.6-1ubuntu4.3 
(lucid-proposed)]
