Bug#597443: package manager broken after install of libglx-nvidia-alternatives (and libgl1-nvidia-alternatives)

[Steven Degrauwe]

Package: libglx-nvidia-alternatives
Version: 195.36.31-3
Severity: important
Tags: d-i

Hello,

The last dist-upgrade of my Debian-testing system broke the package manager.
Responsible for this are the packages mentioned above.

Here are the messages I get when upgrading:

Selecting previously deselected package libgl1-nvidia-alternatives.

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


The packages were automatically selected to be installed with the dist-upgrade.

Is there a solution to get my package manager fully healthy again?

Thanks
