Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/courier-imap_4.4.1-1.1_amd64.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
This is a serious bug as it makes installation fail. Possible
solutions are to have the two packages conflict, to rename the common
file in one of the two packages, or to remove the file from one
package and have this package depend on the other package. File
diversions or a Replace relation are another possibility.
Here is a list of files that are known to be shared by both packages
(according to the Contents file for sid/amd64, which may be
slightly out of sync):
etc/pam.d/imap
usr/sbin/imapd
usr/share/man/man8/imapd.8.gz
Similar bugs happen also in connction with other packages, that is why I
suspect that this uw_imap's fault:
with cyrus-imapd-2.2:
---------------------

This and other similar errors are believed fixed for uw-imap since
8:2007e~dfsg-3.
It is believed to need similar fixes for the corresponding packages,
independent from this fix - so the forked bugreports should IMO be
treated independent to this bug closure.
