Bug Description
I did a search in Synaptic for "network find", and "divine" showed up in the results. When marking it for installation, it says that ftp, telnet, ubuntu-desktop, ubuntu-standard, etc, must be uninstalled. Needless to say, that doesn't sound right...
Running ubuntu 7.04 (32bit i86) on an Acer aspire 5100-3357 turion64.

However it is right, since divine conflicts with the package 'ifupdown', which is depended on (directly or indirectly) by many other packages. I presume it is because divine is a very intrusive package that wants to take over certain critical networking functions.
