| lordievader | Good morning. | 08:34 |
| Mikaela | hi | 08:34 |
| BluesKaj_ | Hiyas all | 12:41 |
| susundberg | Hi | 12:45 |
| susundberg | Hey, i made something probably stupid on my machine: upgrade existing 14.04 to utopic | 12:45 |
| susundberg | Now during the update i hit : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde-workspace/+bug/1394391 | 12:45 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1394391 in kde-workspace (Ubuntu) "package kde-window-manager-common 4:4.11.12-0ubuntu1.1 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/kcontrol/windowspecific/kwin-window-matching.png', which is also in package kde-workspace-data 4:4.11.11-0ubuntu0.2" [Undecided,New] | 12:45 |
| susundberg | That is, apt-get -f install tries to install 'kde-window-manager-common' that tries to overwrite file from 'kde-workspace-data' that cannot be removed due dependency to 'kde-workspace-bin' | 12:48 |
| susundberg | any suggestions ? | 12:48 |
| susundberg | (other than take backups and do fresh install ;) | 12:49 |
| BluesKaj_ | susundberg, did you update and upgrade 14.04 before upgrading to 14.10 | 12:51 |
| BluesKaj_ | ? | 12:51 |
| susundberg | Umm, no i think this fresh 14.04 | 12:52 |
| susundberg | (-> i ended up doing --force-overwite -- seems to continue, there is rather lots of files conflicting, i guess other package should be going away .. ) | 12:53 |
| BluesKaj_ | still needs updating and dist upgrading if it's from an iso | 12:54 |
| susundberg | Oh, sorry i misunderstood your question, no -- actually not sure was it now up to date | 12:54 |
| susundberg | i guess there is no going back at this point .. | 12:55 |
| BluesKaj_ | pobly not | 12:55 |
| BluesKaj_ | unless you have / and /home partitions | 12:56 |
| BluesKaj_ | susundberg, I highly recommend separate / and /home partitions. If something goes wrong one can always just reinstall the OS to / and leave the /home partition untouched which contains your data and config files | 13:03 |
| susundberg | Ya, i agree. Or rather have two '/' so you can always go back to old | 13:05 |
| susundberg | but unfortunately this laptop does not have such luxyry -- not sure why, i guess it was suposed to be temp-installatioin | 13:05 |
| BluesKaj_ | use the manual partitioning during the inatallation and reformat / and just make sure you choose the previous /home mountpoint as /home and ext4 or whatever you use3d previously | 13:05 |
| BluesKaj_ | ok | 13:05 |
| susundberg | Thanks for the tips anyway :) | 13:06 |
| BluesKaj_ | susundberg, try running, sudo dpkg --configure -a , then the -f install command | 13:09 |
| susundberg | I got it running fine with --force-overwrite on the specific package and then followed with apt-get -f install | 13:12 |
| BluesKaj_ | susundberg, good | 13:40 |
| BluesKaj_ | susundberg, btw this chat is for 15.04 support, the regular ubuntu chat is for all others | 13:42 |
