Certainly the best thing to do here is to just reinstall the latest stuff and
keep going.  Barring that, the best way in my opinion is to remove the new
versions of the duplicate packages and try again with the upgrade.  Anyway,
probably the fastest way to get a response on things like this in the future is
to try one of the user mailing lists.
