Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: metacity

Updating metacity from 1:2.28.0-0ubuntu1 to 1:2.28.0-2ubuntu1 crashes
while trying overwrite file '/usr/share/applications/metacity.desktop'
which is also in metacity-common (1:2.28.0-0ubuntu1).

Installing metacity-common first fixes the problem. This suggests the
problem arises because of too loose dependency for metacity.
