    Caligra problem

    It appears there is a problem between the calligrasheets and calligra-data packages. Upon trying to install Sheets I get this message.

    Code:
    [FONT=monospace]dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/calligrasheets_1%3a2.9.0-0ubuntu5_amd64.deb (--unpack): 
    [/FONT][FONT=monospace]trying to overwrite '/usr/share/kde4/services/calligra/calligra_filter_dbase2kspread.desktop', which is also in package calligra-data 1:2.9.0-0ubuntu5[/FONT]
    Is there any way to resolve this?

    Check if using the nuclear option won't complain about anything else: sudo apt-get install --force-yes --simulate calligrasheets
    If you don't see any reported issues, then issue the command without the simulation: sudo apt-get install --force-yes calligrasheets

      It didn't work. I still come up with that same message. I find that odd.

        The other approach would be to un-install Calligra, update the package cache, and then install calligra again. Here, installing calligra will install the following:
        The following NEW packages will be installed:
        braindump calligra calligra-data calligra-libs calligraauthor calligraflow calligraflow-data calligraplan calligrasheets calligrastage calligrastage-data calligrawords
        calligrawords-common calligrawords-data karbon kexi krita krita-data libcauchy0.0 libetonyek-0.1-1 libm2mml0.0 libmagick++5 libodfgen-0.1-1 libopencolorio1 libphononexperimental4

          The other nuclear option is:

          Code:
          sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /path/to/the/deb
