Problems with apt
 
I'm trying to build a myth box using Fedora Core 2 and was following the directions located at http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/fcmyth.php and installed the kickstart suggested in step 5 from atrpms. In the next step, you are supposed to use apt to update the apt package list and upgrade all installed packages with the command
Code:

apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
. Everything starts off nicely and the apt package list updates correctly and after it gets done preparing to update I get an error:
Code:

file /usr/lib/libpt.so.1 from install of pwlib-devel-1.6.6-0_11.rhfc2.at conflicts with file from package pwlib-1.6.5-1
        file /usr/lib/libpt.so.1.6 from install of pwlib-devel-1.6.6-0_11.rhfc2.at conflicts with file from package pwlib-1.6.5-1
E: Error while running transaction

. I'm relatively new to linux and I vaguely know that there is a conflict between the two packages but I don't know how they conflict or how to fix the conflict. Any suggestions?
