[Pkg-fglrx-devel] Bug#525328: fglrx-driver: Installation failed and leave the system in an unusable state

[Encolpe DEGOUTE]

Package: fglrx-driver
Version: 9-4-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Hello,

When I'm trying to install this new release the installation never ended:

Unpacking fglrx-driver (from .../fglrx-driver_1%3a9-4-1_i386.deb) ...   
Leaving `diversion of /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri.so to /usr/lib/fglrx/diversions/libdri.so by fglrx-driver'
Adding `diversion of /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so to /usr/lib/fglrx/diversions/libglx.so by fglrx-driver' 
dpkg-divert: rename involves overwriting `/usr/lib/fglrx/diversions/libglx.so' with                                     
  different file `/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so', not allowed                                              
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/fglrx-driver_1%3a9-4-1_i386.deb (--unpack):                              
 subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 2

After that failure the package is not installed nor removed:

$ ls /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri.so
ls: cannot access /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri.so: No such file or directory

It is impossible to open a new window for any application.

Regards,
