Unpacking replacement python-gnome2 ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/python-gnome2_2.12.3-1ubuntu3_all.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/libpythonmethod.so', which is also in package python2.4-gnome2
I suspect you added the Replaces to the wrong package. python-gnome2 needs to replace python2.4-gnome2 (<< whatever-version-removed-libpythonmethod.so).
