Public bug reported: Binary package hint: compiz
The error message was "trying to overwrite /usr/share/applications/compiz.desktop which is also in package compiz- core 1" After that I got screen corruption where the title bars were unusable. This happened with both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Maverick RC1. I was able to recover by doing a ppa purge with ubuntu tweak.
