Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mediatomb

I had installed the mediatomb .deb from the mediatomb website. When I try to 
upgrade to hardy repo version I get error:
"E: /var/cache/apt/archives/mediatomb-common_0.10.0.dfsg1-2_i386.deb: trying to 
overwrite `/usr/bin/mediatomb', which is also in package mediatomb
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/mediatomb_0.10.0.dfsg1-2_all.deb: there is no script 
in the new version of the package - giving up"
then when I try to remove mediatomb package I get error:
"E: mediatomb: Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should"
or from dpkg:
"dpkg: error processing mediatomb (--remove):
 Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should
 reinstall it before attempting a removal.
Errors were encountered while processing:
