Gimp-data package update error in Debian

crystalattice · #1 09-Jul-2004, 23:41

After playing w/ Mandrake 10, I'm trying Debian. Things have been going well until today. During an auto package upgrade, gimp-data gives me an error:

Code:

Unpacking replacement gimp-data...
dpkg:  error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/gimp-data<ver>.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite '/usr/share/pixmaps/gnome-gimp.png', which is also in 
package gnome-desktop-data
pkg-deb:  subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)

Because this doesn't want to upgrade, every time I run Synaptic, I'm always being told there's a broken package; if I try to hold it from upgrading then Synaptic wants to uninstall Gimp and Gnome.

Anyone have an idea or should I go to a specific linux users forum?

Thanks.

Well, I just had to wait long enough and an update to gimp and gimp-data fixed the problem. No more worries.
