I ran into a broken package message that suggested I:
sudo apt-get -f install

The command spits out the following:

Unpacking xubuntu-default-settings (from
.../xubuntu-default-settings_12.04.11_all.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/xubuntu-default-settings_12.04.11_all.deb
(--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/etc/skel/.xscreensaver', which is also in package
mythbuntu-default-settings 1.08
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/xubuntu-default-settings_12.04.11_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I did a google search and found a bug report, but no solutions.  does
anyone know how I can mannually 'fix' this on my system?
