Solving problem: apt-get dist-upgrade
The following problem arises, again and again:
:code:dpkg: Error when working on /var/cache/apt/archives/........dep ....
tries to overwrite ».....« , which is also in ..... package.:code:
and the apt-get dist-upgrade stops.
To solve that one can do:
:code:dpkg --force-overwrite -i /var/cache/apt/archives/..........deb:code:
Observe and read carefully the resulting messages, after... /apt/archives/...
and then run:
:code:apt-get -f install:code:
until no more errors are displayed.
And then run
# apt-get update && apt-get dist-update
until no more errors are displayed.
