I have used make-kpkg to make a 2.6 kernel deb which
is producing a strange
error on attempted installation. I simply used the
source package with the
config file from the 686 kernel image deb. I receive
the following error
when attempting to install:

dpkg: error processing
kernel-image-2.6.0_std1_i386.deb (--install):
 trying to overwrite `/DEBIAN/control', which is also
in package tar
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken
pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
 kernel-image-2.6.0_std1_i386.deb

The /DEBIAN directory exists after this process but is
empty. On a previous
attempt it did indeed contain the control file for
tar.

Any ideas on solving the problem would be appreciated.
