After 6 months it is still happening with:
linux-tools-5.15.0-50 5.15.0-50.56 and
linux-lowlatency-tools-5.15.0-50 5.15.0-50.56
This breaks very typical desktop installations (just linux-lowlatency kernel
and its tools installed).
Unexperienced users may not know how to fix this problem, rendering their
system with not working apt, hence no installations or updates for them.
There is even no "Conflicts" relationship between those packages, which could
prevent this buggy behavior.
But in fact both of those packages should be installable.
** Summary changed:
- linux-tools-5.15.0-27-lowlatency clashes with linux-tools-5.15.0-27
+ "linux-tools-lowlatency" package fails to update, tries to overwrite files
from "linux-tools"

Title:
"linux-tools-lowlatency" package fails to update, tries to overwrite
files from "linux-tools"
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in linux-lowlatency package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
After updating to ubuntu 22.04 I'm getting an error on linux-
tools-5.15.0-27-lowlatency trying to install
/usr/lib/libcpupower.so.5.15.0-27 which is already installed by linux-
tools-5.15.0-27.
The generic version of the package linux-tools-5.15.0-27-generic,
doesn't have that file and installs without problem but the lowlatency
version seems to erroneously pack that file which leads to a clash
with linux-tools-5.15.0-27.
This happens when a low latency kernel is installed without trying to
install anything else, just by updating the system.
The specific versions of the packages are:
linux-tools-5.15.0-27-lowlatency: 5.15.0-27.28
linux-tools-5.15.0-27: 5.15.0-27.28
The generic version which works without problem is the same:
linux-tools-5.15.0-27-generic: 5.15.0-27.28
