This bug was fixed in the package linux-base - 3.5ubuntu1 --------------- linux-base (3.5ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low
* Added quilt patch support * Remove /usr/bin/perf from this package as it conflicts with the Ubuntu kernel tools package linux-tools-common (which provides the real /usr/bin/perf). I can think of no reason why this should cause a problem. /usr/bin/perf is kernel ABI version specific, therefore it can only be provided by the correct version of linux-tools-$version-$abi. debian/patches/0001-remove-bin-perf.patch -LP: #931353 -- Tim Gardner <tim.gard...@canonical.com> Wed, 23 May 2012 13:35:38 -0600 ** Changed in: linux-base (Ubuntu Quantal) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/931353 Title: package linux-tools-common (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/perf', which is also in package linux- base 3.3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/931353/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
