Error while updating linux-intel-iotg-tools-common

[Vortex]

Error while installing package: trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/acpidbg', which is also in package linux-tools-common 5.15.0-83.92

The linux-intel-iotg-tools-common update fails. I am able to continue normally.

I have looked at previous similarly reported bugs, most involve different versions of Kernel, linux-intel-iotg-tools-common or linux-tools-common. None appear to have a resolution.

Update: I rm /usr/bin/acpidbg and run the update again, but still get:

I am guessing that both of these tools packages cannot exist at the same time.

Can anyone tell me which one is more important to have?
