Hi coss_cat, thanks for taking the time to file a bug report and help us make Ubuntu better.

I think you may have some erroneous packages from some other source on your system, as that version of libaio isn't in any supported release of Ubuntu. This snippet shows the very old version:

Unpacking libaio-dev (from .../libaio-dev_0.3.107-7ubuntu2_i386.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libaio-dev_0.3.107-7ubuntu2_i386.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/include/libaio.h', which is also in package libaio 0.3.104-1

That release of libaio, 0.3.104-1, was superseded in July of 2005.

You should be able to correct the problem by removing that package (apt-get remove libaio).

Closing bug as Invalid.
