Bug Description

I just got this while dist-upgrading an edgy chroot:

Preparing to replace firefox-dev 1.99+2.0b1+dfsg-1ubuntu3 (using .../firefox-dev_1.99+2.0b2+dfsg-1ubuntu2_amd64.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement firefox-dev ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/firefox-dev_1.99+2.0b2+dfsg-1ubuntu2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/firefox/regxpcom', which is also in package firefox
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
