There again, it's possible they upgraded in frustration because they couldn't get their bluetooth to work. (I'm no help with BT audio.) Cheers, David.

The FIRST thing you should do is file a bug report, so that the bug can be fixed in Debian. Sid users should also be extremely familiar with filing bug reports. That's why you're running sid in the first place, y'know? So you can help Debian fix bugs. Second, since the offending file is in an OLDER version of the codeblocks-headers package, one which will presumably be updated with a sid version, it should be obvious which package you want to remove, temporarily.

Once you've gotten it to the point where this is the only error left, you can fix it by using a sledgehammer: # dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/codeblocks-dev_20.03-3.1+b1_amd64.deb What this does is tell the Debian package installer to do the overwrite. When dpkg is run as an "automatic" process it won't do it because such a conflict can cause serious problems if it occurs within a Debian version, but not _between_ Debian versions. Or when I was running Sid for several years. Then run your usual package manager process again to finish anything this error was preventing. In my experience this kind of thing has only happened _between_ Debian major versions, and as such forcing the overwrite has not caused any problems that I could discern. That it happens so rarely and only in such extreme circumstances is a testament to the quality of the Debian package maintainers and their attention to detail.

Re: removing file??
You got a conflict. The problem does not lie in /var/apt/cache but in '/usr/include/codeblocks/Alignment.h' which was put there by something else than you are now installing. To resolve the conflict you need to figure out what is the (other) owner of '/usr/include/codeblocks/Alignment.h'. You can then remove that (if you want to) to install the other file. Sometimes there are stale and unowned files left behind by previous incomplete package removals. These can then usually simply get deleted. Peter Sent from my phone.
