Description Phil Hord 2025-01-27 18:05:33 UTC
Trying to update today and I received this error from plasma-discover:

    1952-Unpacking plasma-discover (6.2.5-0zneon+24.04+noble+release+build18) over (6.2.5-0zneon+24.04+noble+release+build13) ...
    1953-dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-q0NLf2/16-plasma-discover_6.2.5-0zneon+24.04+noble+release+build18_amd64.deb (--unpack):
    1954: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/plasmadiscover.png', which is also in package plasma-discover-common 6.2.5-0zneon+24.04+noble+release+build13

Checking manually, I was able to verify the conflict:

sudo apt-file search /usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/plasmadiscover.png               
plasma-discover: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/plasmadiscover.png
plasma-discover-common: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/plasmadiscover.png

But I also noticed that plasma-discover-common is no longer needed.  So presumably this is a transient problem that will only hit users one time.  But I suspect it will hit every user one time.
