Public bug reported:
Whenever I attempt to install a .deb package for radeon for ubuntu
18.04, instead of installing, I get an error that it is unable to
install due to conflicts, even though I know the package is not even
installed.
I get this:
dpkg: regarding .../xserver-xorg-video-radeon_18.0.1-1_amd64.deb containing
xserver-xorg-video-radeon:
xserver-xorg-video-radeon-hwe-18.04 conflicts with xserver-xorg-video-radeon
xserver-xorg-video-radeon (version 1:18.0.1-1) is to be installed.
