  overwrite '/usr/lib/pkgconfig/python2.pc', which is also in package
  python2.7 2.7.3-0ubuntu3.1

Bug description:
  Attempted to install python-dev as a dependency to mysql-workbench and
  hit this bug. It appears that the issue is that python-dev is
  attempting to supply a python.pc file for pkg-config while 'python'
  already does.
