2022-07-19 12:34:03 Dimitri John Ledkov description While trying to upgrade from impish to jammy I get: Preparing to unpack .../swtpm_0.6.1-0ubuntu5_amd64.deb ... Unpacking swtpm (0.6.1-0ubuntu5) over (0.6.1) ... dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/swtpm_0.6.1-0ubuntu5_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/swtpm/libswtpm_libtpms.so.0.0.0', which is also in package swtpm-libs:amd64 0.6.1 Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/swtpm_0.6.1-0ubuntu5_amd64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) I had previously installed the swtpm package using the upstream source as the package was not available for Impish. Best regards Heinrich [Impact] * swtpm did not use to exist in ubuntu * prior to packaging in ubuntu, it was common to compile and use swtpm debian packaging as provided by upstream * ubuntu packaging is incompatible with upstream provided one, and upgrades to ubuntu package do not work automatically, despite same naming for some of the packaging [Test Plan] * build and install swtpm & swtpm-libs deb packages from https://github.com/stefanberger/swtpm * Attempt to upgrade to ubuntu's provided swtpm * The upgrade should automatically break/replace and remove swtpm-libs package that is not used in Ubuntu, and conflicts with swtpm package. [Where problems could occur] * Inverse change may be required in upstream packaging, if they wish to support upgrading from Ubuntu packages to Upstream provided ones. [Other Info] * Original bug report While trying to upgrade from impish to jammy I get: Preparing to unpack .../swtpm_0.6.1-0ubuntu5_amd64.deb ...
