Bug#360775: Packaging problem - conflict between gnome-games-data and gnome-card-games

[Ambrose Li]

Hi

I have been dist-upgrading for many months. The last time this machine ran Woody was many months ago for a few hours (a minimum install for just enough time to do an immediate dist-upgrade to sarge, the then-unstable).

If "upgrades from woody aren't support" is the problem, then the packaging is even more broken than I suspected.
