Bug Description

Binary package hint: waon

The file name "/usr/bin/pv" exists in two packages: Package "waon" and package "pv".

http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/i386/pv/filelist
http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/i386/waon/filelist

So, having "pv" installed "waon" fails to install.
This bug exists on hardy, intrepid and jaunty.

I use hardy and packages versions are:
Package: pv (1.1.0-1) [universe]
Package: waon (0.8-0ubuntu2) [universe]

Same on Karmic Alpha4. Note that the man page is also the same.
