Hmm; what's /etc/defoma/config on your system exactly? It's supposed to be a directory, and multiple packages shipping the same directory is certainly permitted. On my system: gs-common: /etc/defoma/config libpango1.0-common: /etc/defoma/config libpango1.0-common: /etc/defoma/config/pango.conf x-ttcidfont-conf: /etc/defoma/config x-ttcidfont-conf: /etc/defoma/config/x-ttcidfont-conf.conf2 -- Loïc Minier
