Hm. Not so for me, unfortunately:

Preparing to replace libx11-6 1:6.2.1+cvs.20050615-3 (using .../libx11-6_1%3a6.2.1+cvs.20050615-4_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libx11-6 ...
dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/libx11-6_1%3a6.2.1+cvs.20050615-4_i386.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/X11/XErrorDB', which is also in package xlibs-data

Lots of other packages return similar errors.
