Sorry for the ancient thread revival here, but just found this app and was anxious to install it. It was my favorite game on my US Robotics Pilot!

I'm getting an error when installing...
Unpacking dopewars (from .../user/MyDocs/tmp/dopewars.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing /home/user/MyDocs/tmp/dopewars.deb (--install):
trying to overwrite `/.deb', which is also in package sdictviewer
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
/home/user/MyDocs/tmp/dopewars.deb
I don't want to uninstall sdictviewer. Is there a way I can work around this error? (running 5.2008.43-7 on N810)
