package fglrx-dev 2:14.100-0ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/fglrx/libGL.so', which is also in package fglrx 2:13.350.1-0ubuntu2

[Rahul Shelke]

while installing through apt-get it is always failing to install fglrx data file. Initially thought of it as some permission related issue but the same issue is persistence when updated through root user.
