Tried the following several times which did not work: sudo apt-get install -f sudo apt-get clean sudo apt-get update
Then re-install the package. What did work was: cd /var/cache/apt/archives/ sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite linux-image-3.5.0-51-generic_3.5.0-51.77~precise1_i386.deb As James D suggested. Worked for me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1328182 Title: package linux-image-3.5.0-51-generic 3.5.0-51.76 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/lib/modules/3.5.0-51-generic/kernel/net/bluetooth/bnep/bnep.ko', which is also in package linux-image-extra-3.5.0-51-generic 3.5.0-51.76 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1328182/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
