    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.
