Hello,
I'm presently at http://www.noobslab.com/2011/11/install-linux-mint-mate-desktop-on.html
The problem I'm having is highlighted with larger font below:
randyman@randyman-EL1358G:~$ sudo apt-get -f install

Unpacking python-mate-desktop (from .../python-mate-desktop_1.0.2-1_amd64.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/python-mate-desktop_1.0.2-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtk-2.0/evolution/ecal.la', which is also in package python-evolution 2.32.0-0ubuntu6
Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
randyman@randyman-EL1358G:~$
So here's my question: what command may I use to force dpkg to overwrite '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtk-2.0/evolution/ecal.la'?
I don't use Evolution anyway (never have).
Any help or alternative suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you.
