Bug Description
Upon upgrade with kopanocore installed I got this:
Preparing to unpack .../php-
Unpacking php-mapi (8.3.4-4ubuntu3) ...
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/
trying to overwrite '/etc/php/
dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Workaround:
$ dpkg --remove php7.1-mapi
$ apt --fix-broken install
It seems the package got a rename from php7.1-mapi to php-mapi
Was that an accident?
If not IMHO I think it needs a breaks && replaces statement?
Since I'm not sure what the intended way (rename it and add breaks OR renamed by accident) was I'd prefer to wait for Nish unless somebody knows and can share what the intended packaging should be.
