File overwrite problem

[Michael Vogt]

I got this error during a test-upgrade from edgy->feisty:

dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/dmsetup_2%3a1.02.08-1ubuntu4_i386.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite `/sbin/devmap_name', which is also in package multipath-tools

 /var/cache/apt/archives/dmsetup_2%3a1.02.08-1ubuntu4_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I'm not sure if it is a dmsetup or a multipath-tools problem, but because both are maintained by the same group, it shouldn't be a problem :)

Cheers,

Fixed in multipath-tools_0.4.7-1.1ubuntu2 and devmapper_1.02.08-1ubuntu5 I think.
