I have an amd64 machine which I have been using with debian testing
(currently lenny) for over a year now. I have been upgrading regularly;
possibly the last time was a month ago. No problems then.
Then, last night, I did apt-get update then apt-get dist-upgrade. Things
downloaded, then:
Preparing to replace libc6-i386 2.5-9 (using .../libc6-i386_2.6-2_amd64.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libc6-i386 ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6-i386_2.6-2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite `/usr/lib32', which is also in package lib32z1
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/libc6-i386_2.6-2_amd64.deb
Either of these, followed by the usual "apt-get update", should work:
# dpkg --remove --force-depends lib32z1
That worked. Thanks.
There will almost certainly be brokenness resulting from that, but it should
be fixed automatically on update by reinstalling that package or as a
side-effect of the upgrade of other packages.
(I think that the problem's due to a missing versioned Conflicts:.)
Good diagnosis. I am back in business.
