[pkg-nvidia-devel] Bug#588590: Conflicts with nvidia-glx

[Ariel]

I have the same trouble with nvidia-glx. I had both nvidia-glx and 
nvidia-glx-legacy-173xx installed (due to upgrading my video card), and 
now I can't purge nvidia-glx-legacy-173xx.

When I try to purge it, it says:

Removing nvidia-glx-legacy-173xx ...
Purging configuration files for nvidia-glx-legacy-173xx ...
rm: cannot remove `/usr/lib/libGL.so': No such file or directory

   when removing `diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 to /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1.xlibmesa by nvidia-glx-legacy-173xx'
   found `diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 to /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1.xlibmesa by nvidia-glx'
dpkg: error processing nvidia-glx-legacy-173xx (--purge):
  subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 2

Errors were encountered while processing:
  nvidia-glx-legacy-173xx


A new version of nvidia-glx-legacy-173xx will not help me, how do I purge 
the package? Should I manually edit the postrm script?
