install fail

[rw-bowman]

got this error during install: Error while installing package: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcamera-base.so.0.1.0', which is also in package libcamera0.1 on kubuntu 23.10, msi gt77 laptop

[souravdas142]

try to overwrite the files on package installation.

[rw-bowman]

That did not work, I did try uninstalling libcamera via the package manager and this did allow pipewire to finish the install , however this made the system unbootable. My user profile was not available. There were several dpkg error trying the upgrade before the removal of libcamera.

[rw-bowman]

also getting this one the new install

This seems to be part of the issue, and uninstalling pipewire from apt wants to remove kubuntu-desktop as well.

I can reproduce here.

Hold the previous version. I will check tomorrow again. It need minimum efforts to fix. running out of time.

[rw-bowman]
