Are there unexpected symlinks in the second case for example one of the directories in constituting the path to /usr/lib/python2.7/dist- packages/foolscap-0.6.1.egg-info/ or /usr/lib/python2.6/dist- packages/foolscap-0.6.1.egg-info/ or /usr/share/pyshared/foolscap-0.6.1 .egg-info/ ?
That's usually what explains those strange errors... because two files contained in the same package map to a single file in the system through unexpected symlinks that take the place of directories provided by the package. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/786032 Title: dpkg treats two identical packages differently -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
