Unlike Debian, Slackware has no limitations on installing the same files

removing files from multiple packages. So I understand how Debian complains
during installation and Slackware does not. :)
Debian says conflict and user must use --force to unpack package manually.
It's definitely not good for Debian / Ubuntu users :)
tdeartwork contains many icons for most of the TDE "base packages". Because
tdeaddons and tdesdk are "base packages", I consider it acceptable that the
icons for kbabel and ktimemon are installed from tdeartwork.
I show the following in my package sets:
kbabel.png:
tdeartwork, tdesdk
ktimemon.png:
tdeartwork, tdeaddons
Yes, we have the same files - Debian binary packages are
more granulary. I will update the installation, to be installed in only
one of these packages. The question is, from which package? a) All from
tdearwork
b) From tdeaddons and tdesdk
c) None of the above => another interesting idea :)
The kbabel images are straightforward: remove them from tdeartwork. The
images apply only to kbabel, which is installed through the tdesdk package.
ktimemon is a panel applet (name: System Monitor --- A simple system
monitor). That applet is installed by tdeaddons. So again, remove the
images from the tdeartwork package.
Makes sense to me. :)

Note: I intend to only modify the installation - I will not delete files.
