This looks odd, I checked tidy/libtidy if they would conflict but they
work fine:

It seems you installed 18.04 and there was no upgrade to tidy/libtidy since 
18.04 was released so I have to wonder why it was updated now according to your 
logs.

This case is odd, but I can't see the root cause.
If you have any background on what triggered this upgrade and how you got the 
error I'd appreciate, but from the logs so far I can't take any action.


I checked the supposed owner of the file:
libtidy5: /usr/lib/libtidy.so.5

But then I realized the 5.4 in your bug report.

These are the official/supported versions of tidy in Ubuntu right now

There is no 5.4 especially not for Bionic which you are on.
I assume you installed "tidy" from an external source and now something 
installs libtidy5 by dependency and both packages conflict.

Remove or fix the external package to get things right.
