Bug Description

Binary package hint: synaptic

Update Manager claims that it has an upgrade for acroread. I run "Install Updates" and then get the following error:

E: /var/cache/apt/archives/acroread_9.1.0-7intrepid1_i386.deb: trying to overwrite `/usr/share/man/man1/acroread.1.gz', which is also in package acroread-debian-files

Bug #247990 appears similar, but differs in that the subscribers appear to have fixed their problem with:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

This did not work for me at all.

I am on Ubuntu Intrepid, using acroread 8.1.3-0medibuntu0.8.10.2

Thank you.
