Thank you for opening this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. Looking at your description, I see that you are running Karmic, but
(1) trying to install a non-official package (nxagent, from a PPA); (2) having, present in your system, an old version of libxcompshad, from Hardy. Can you please tell us how (2) happened? ** Changed in: nxcompshad (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: nxcompshad (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- trying "sudo apt-get install nxagent" package libxcompshad3 not installed failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite /usr/lib/libXcompshad.so.3 , which is also in package libxcompshad 0:3.2.0-1hardy1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/480339 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
