Comment 21 for bug 1100622

Hi robegue,

1. you are right, my fault.

Didn't copy your command into the terminal but simply chaged the last one and thus was invoking:

dpkg-deb -i ../newpackage.deb

The package I install with GDebi.

2. My idea was getting all the old stuff out of the way just in case later changes in newer packages would lead to more conflicts like this one. Moving the old libs and applications into another directory at least would prevent them from being overridden, I thought. In your post #14 you were mentioning that this fix isn't a long term solution. Hoped my idea could be one. But maybe I think the wrong way. Don't know nothing about packaging and even prefer tools like moun or synaptic to the command line.
