Package: nvidia-glx
Version: 195.36.31-5
Severity: important

I tried upgrading from nvidia-glx 190.53-4 to 195.36.31-5 on a machine that is
mostly still lenny, but running a 2.6.32 kernel. Configuring nvidia-glx failed
with a dpkg-divert error:

dpkg-divert: rename involves overwriting `/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libGLcore.so' with
  different file `/usr/lib/nvidia/libGLcore.so.xlibmesa', not allowed
