Package: libprrte-bin
Version: 3.0.13-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

apt upgrade breaks with
Dépaquetage de libprrte-bin (3.0.13-2) ...
dpkg: erreur de traitement de l'archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-HjhtcL/233-libprrte-bin_3.0.13-2_amd64.deb (--unpack) :
 trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/pterm', which is also in package pterm (0.83-3)            


I have not tagged this isssue important but it might be as the apt
upgrade cannot complete even with "apt -f install" until I dpkg -r pterm
(I cannot apt remove pterm as apt is broken and requires an apt -f
install which does not remove pterm)

Cheers,
Alban
