[Bug 333550] Re: dpkg-divert mismatch when upgrading or reinstalling nvidia-glx-180

 

I know this bug is related to nvidia driver, but I got a similar problem
with xorg-driver-fglrx.

I tried to ireplace the xorg-driver-fglrx for non-free fglrx-driver:

# apt-get install module-assistant fglrx-driver fglrx-kernel-src
...The following extra packages will be installed:
  fglrx-atieventsd fglrx-glx fglrx-glx-ia32 fglrx-source
....
Removing xorg-driver-fglrx ...
dpkg-divert: mismatch on divert-to
  when removing `diversion of /usr/X11R6/lib32/libGL.so.1 to /usr/X11R6/lib32/fglrx/libGL.so.1.2.xlibmesa by xorg-driver-fglrx'
  found `diversion of /usr/X11R6/lib32/libGL.so.1 to /usr/X11R6/lib32/fglrx/libGL.so.1.xlibmesa by xorg-driver-fglrx'
dpkg: error processing xorg-driver-fglrx (--remove):

Errors were encountered while processing:
xorg-driver-fglrx
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


I'm running debian lenny in kernel 2.6.26 amd64. Hope this dpkg bug will be solved somehow. Maybe a patch?
