package python-markdown 2.0.3-1 failed to install: Trying to overwrite »/usr/bin/markdown«, which is contained in package markdown 0:1.0.1-7

[xenesis]

Binary package hint: python-markdown

Trying to install python-markdown when package markdown is already installed fails, because both contain the file /usr/bin/markdown.

Possible Resolutions:
1) Remove /usr/bin/markdown from python-markdown and make it dependend on markdown
2) Make python-markdown and markdown conflicting

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, I am closing it because the bug has been fixed in the latest version of Ubuntu - Maverick Meerkat.

For the record, we have also made this change for the next release (probably 2.1) of Python-Markdown. See our commit here: http://gitorious.org/python-markdown/mainline/commit/d833be68cb7279241996e0f3e9ae3d1162308145
