Change to the /var/cache/apt/archives/ and use dpkg -i --force-overwrite
offending_packages and then dpkg --configure -a to get the unconfigured
packages that were left when the error happened you may have to repeat
this process a couple of times. You may also want to add this line to
your sources.list and get the Debian packages they are the .92 beta 2
version. You will need to use the commands mentioned above on these
packages as well other than that they work great.
