Error message during security updates


Hi,

Recently I realized that I receive an error message during my security updates. Can somebody please help me understand what's going wrong? Here is the relevant message sent by CRON:

1 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
2 packages not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 603kB of archives. After unpacking 111kB will be freed.
Get:1 http://security.debian.org woody/updates/main xutils 4.1.0-16woody6 [603kB]
Fetched 603kB in 16s (35.7kB/s)
(Reading database ... 48157 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace xutils 4.1.0-16woody5 (using .../xutils_4.1.0-16woody6_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement xutils ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/xutils_4.1.0-16woody6_i386.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite `/usr/X11R6/bin/atobm', which is also in package xbase-clients
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/xutils_4.1.0-16woody6_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Thanks, umk
