Something is broken here indeed; I'm just wondering how you got into this situation; my aptitude log shows on Mon, Oct 20 2014: [UPGRADE] libjson-pp-perl:amd64 2.27300-1 -> 2.27300-2 and this went obviously fine. And I've never seen dpkg-divert saying "rename involves overwriting .. with different file .., not allowed". Let's try: # dpkg -l libjson-pp-perl .. ii libjson-pp-perl 2.27300-2 all module for manipulating JSON-formatted data (P # aptitude purge libjson-pp-perl [needs a downgrade of cpanminus. ok.] Removing libjson-pp-perl (2.27300-2) ...
