@Karthik I agree; this is a particularly severe bug because it renders the entire apt-get facility useless.
For what it's worth, even though the last command is the command that "fixes" the issue, I believe it to be desirable to execute the previous two commands, too, because those packages are part of the problematic dependency-chain. In other words, even though it may be possible to remove only the "libc6-dev-x32" package and "fix" the problem, that approach seems more likely to introduce problems in the future (i.e., once Canonical fixes this package). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1365375 Title: package libc6-dev-i386 (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/include/gnu', which is also in package libc6 -dev-amd64 2.19-0ubuntu6.3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/+bug/1365375/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
