[Pkg-crosswire-devel] [Bug 1416067] Re: package libsword-common (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/sword/locales.d/de-utf8.conf', which is also in package libsword 1.7.4-1

[Unit 193]

Hello!  Thanks for taking the time to report a bug; however, you have
installed the package 'libsword' from an external source and therefore
will need to report the bug to them.

The package 'libsword-common' is trying to overwrite files from
'libsword'.  This presumably happened because you are trying to install
'xiphos', which depends on 'libsword11', which depends on 'libsword-
common'.  I would try to remove all of those packages and reinstall only
from the Ubuntu repository so you don't run into this problem.

If this is not the case, please feel free to change the status of this
report.

** Changed in: sword (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete

  package libsword-common (not installed) failed to install/upgrade:
  trying to overwrite '/usr/share/sword/locales.d/de-utf8.conf', which

Status in sword package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The machine identifies this as a problem, but will not allow me to
  make any changes. I have gone so fart as to try and completely remove
  Xiphos from the machine, but because of the error, I cannot make any
  changes.
