[Bug 568782] [NEW] cannot install two linux-backports-modules-wireless packages

[vroetman]

Public bug reported:

linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic is already installed, 
so linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32-20-generic is installed
When upgrading to kernel 2.6.32-21, it tries to install linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32-21-generic
but has a conflict with the -20 package:

 trying to overwrite '/lib/udev/compat_firmware.sh', which is also in
package linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32-20-generic
0:2.6.32-20.10

Since the system keeps two kernels on, these two backports-modules-
wireless package need to be able to co-exist. Or it needs to replace the
-20 package with the -21 package.
