I've been getting this error about libjpeg-progs for a while now. I removed the package and left libjpeg-turbo-progs installled. It also took xscreensaver-data-extra with it when purged. I re-installed libjpeg-turbo-progs and xscreensaver-data-extra.
setup an alias so the other updates would complete: alias udf='sudo dpkg --configure -a' -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libjpeg-turbo in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1518035 Title: package libjpeg-progs 1:9a-2ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man1/djpeg.1.gz', which is also in package libjpeg-turbo-progs 1.3.0-0ubuntu2 Status in libjpeg-turbo package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in libjpeg9 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in libjpeg9 package in Debian: Unknown Bug description: just upgrading ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: libjpeg-progs 1:9a-2ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-19.23-generic 4.2.6 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-19-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.19.2-0ubuntu6 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Nov 16 15:38:22 2015 Dependencies: gcc-5-base 5.2.1-23ubuntu1 libc6 2.21-0ubuntu4 libgcc1 1:5.2.1-23ubuntu1 libjpeg9 1:9a-2ubuntu1 multiarch-support 2.21-0ubuntu4 DuplicateSignature: Unpacking libjpeg-progs (1:9a-2ubuntu1) over (8c-2ubuntu8) ... dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/libjpeg-progs_1%3a9a-2ubuntu1_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man1/djpeg.1.gz', which is also in package libjpeg-turbo-progs 1.3.0-0ubuntu2 ErrorMessage: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man1/djpeg.1.gz', which is also in package libjpeg-turbo-progs 1.3.0-0ubuntu2 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-02-24 (633 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release amd64 (20131016.1) RelatedPackageVersions: dpkg 1.18.3ubuntu1 apt 1.0.10.2ubuntu1 SourcePackage: libjpeg9 Title: package libjpeg-progs 1:9a-2ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man1/djpeg.1.gz', which is also in package libjpeg-turbo-progs 1.3.0-0ubuntu2 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libjpeg-turbo/+bug/1518035/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
