Fully dist-upgraded 2005-04 then error on dist-upgrade today (xorg 7 v19) :

dpkg : error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/x11-common
trying to overwrite /usr/x11r6/bin also in package opera

What do I do to (force) dist-upgrade?

drb

Remove the offending piece of closed source software --> opera, which acts _really_ stupid. You can try to get it running again after upgrading and perhaps send them a bugreport too.

so /usr/X11R6/include/X11/bitmaps/opera.xpm
is the offender
i did dpkg --purge opera
which lets d-u complete
but then re-installing opera leaves it nowhere to be found
so
add application [to kicker]
opera is now at /usr/lib/opera/8.54-20060330.1/opera [in my case]
if opera-install is interrupted by
[Invalid UTF-8] Could not parse file '/usr/share/applications/kde/knxcc_info.desktop' error, edit 'knxcc_info.desktop''
change uber to von in the line
