Comment 2 for bug 1691834

Hi Alan,
$ apt-get install golang-1.6-go golang-1.6-race-detector-runtime
works perfectly fine and /usr/lib/go-1.6/src is a symlink both packages own.
$ dpkg -S /usr/lib/go-1.6/src
golang-1.6-race-detector-runtime, golang-1.6-go: /usr/lib/go-1.6/src

I wonder if through "Ubuntu Software UI" would imply any sort of extra concurrency?
But then the apt lock would block that out.

I see that this happened on a bigger upgrade but it only seemed bigger due to so many mono related packages being bumped t the same time.

Hrm - for now question #1 is - is this reproducible?
So:
- did golang still not upgrade?
- does the same show up on every try to upgrade it?

I agree that this might be related to the UI updater, but essentially this is funneled through aptdaemon as seen in the DpkgHistoryLog. So for now I'm adding an aptdaemon task, maybe the experts there know more.

For you please provide as much extra info that you can along the questions above, but more if you can.
