I'm not sure what more information do you need. It's just that dpkg tries to process the same file twice because the 2 paths are in reality in the same location. It's a relatively common (though obscure) error: http://raphaelhertzog.com/2011/07/18/deciphering-one-of-dpkg-weirdest-errors-unable-to-open-pathtofoo-dpkg-new/ We would have to teach dpkg to recognize when 2 paths are actually the same.
