Apt-get is trying to install libsane-extras but it says: npacking libsane-extras (from .../libsane-extras_1.0.18.15_i386.deb) ... dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libsane-extras_1.0.18.15_i386.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/share/man/man5/sane-epkowa.5.gz', which is also in package iscan dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/libsane-extras_1.0.18.15_i386.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
I've tried apt-get -f install and I've manually deleted /usr/share/mam/man5/sane-epkowa.5.gz but no improvement. I don't want to try purging sane because I need to be able to send faxes and if I can't reinstall it I shall be stuck. Any suggestions of what to try?
