I have remnamed my .pinerc file and my mail directory on my desktop,
and tried to install alpine.

After a couple of hours ( we have a problem with a bodgy ISP, and the
data transmission speed has gone from ADSL speed to dialup speed) of
tiome to download and install the two packages, I got the following
error;

"E: /var/cache/apt/archives/alpine_1.10+dfsg-3_i386.deb: trying to
overwrite `/usr/share/man/man1/rpload.1.gz', which is also in package
pine
"

and so the installation apparently did not complete.

So, what now?
