I use the LyX devel release ppa ( https://launchpad.net/~lyx-devel/+archive/release) in (K)ubuntu 14.04. LyX wants to upgrade to LyX 2.1 but I recieve this error message during the installation process:
/var/cache/apt/archives/lyx_2.1.0-1~trusty~ppa2_amd64.deb trying to overwrite '/usr/share/applications/lyx.desktop', which is also in package lyx-common 2.1.0-1~trusty~ppa2 The installation is interrupted and LyX not installed. I have tried to clean apt and purge the files before installation but the problem remains. Is there a package error in the new files or am I doing something wrong? I can try to get more information from the terminal and the apt command if needed, I just have to teach it speak English first.
