Broken package error after updating
I updated my system using the Update Manager and now I am getting a "Broken Package" error.
I went into Synaptic Package Manager and clicked on Fix Broken Packages but then I got this error:
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/dockmanager_0.1.0~bzr80-0ubuntu1~10.10~dockers1_i386.deb:
trying to overwrite '/usr/share/dockmanager/data/skype_away.svg', which is also in package faenza-icon-theme 0.8
I cannot install or remove anything until the broken package is fixed. What should I do now?
UPDATE:
As suggested in the answers, I ran the commands
sudo apt-get purge faenza-icon-theme
sudo apt-get -f install
But still get the same error, here is what I get:

Solution 1:
Exact duplicate of my error trying to overwrite '*', which is also in package faenza-icon-theme 0.8
Follow the same steps and you should have no issue.
I sent an email to the package manager of Faenza icons about this but received no answer...
Solution 2:
First, remove the faenza-icon-theme package:
sudo apt-get purge faenza-icon-theme
Now, try to reinstall the dockmanager.
You can also try to run:
sudo apt-get install -f
