Just for completeness, I had this problem as well. I did the steps mentiond:
sudo apt-get install -f sudo apt-get clean sudo apt-get update but It did not help. I noticed when i did sudo apt-get install -f that I had kernel packages that wasn't needed so I followed the advice on the screen and did sudo apt-get autoremove and then redid the steps. Now the apt-get is no longer telling me to upgrade to 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/1276428 Title: package linux-image-3.8.0-35-generic 3.8.0-35.50 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/lib/modules/3.8.0-35-generic/kernel/mm/hwpoison-inject.ko', which is also in package linux-image-extra-3.8.0-35-generic 3.8.0-35.50 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1276428/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
