** Description changed: - The installation of lxqt-panel fails with a dpkg error code (1). - Error message: "dpkg: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)". - I have attempted the following steps: - 1. Ran "apt --fix-broken install". - 2. Cleared apt cache and removed the problematic .deb file. - 3. Attempted to remove and re-install the package. - The issue persists across multiple attempts. - - ProblemType: Package - DistroRelease: Ubuntu 26.04 - Package: lxqt-panel (not installed) - ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 7.0.0-15.15-generic 7.0.0 - Uname: Linux 7.0.0-15-generic x86_64 - ApportVersion: 2.34.0-0ubuntu2 - Architecture: amd64 - CasperMD5CheckResult: pass - Date: Fri May 29 19:21:09 2026 - ErrorMessage: trying to overwrite '/etc/xdg/lxqt/panel.conf', which is also in package lxqt-branding-debian (0.14.0.7) - InstallationDate: Installed on 2026-05-16 (13 days ago) - InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 26.04 "Resolute Raccoon" - Release amd64 (20260423.1) - Python3Details: /usr/bin/python3.14, Python 3.14.4, python3-minimal, 3.14.3-0ubuntu2 - PythonDetails: N/A - RelatedPackageVersions: - dpkg 1.23.7ubuntu1 - apt 3.2.0 - SourcePackage: lxqt-panel - Title: package lxqt-panel (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/etc/xdg/lxqt/panel.conf', which is also in package lxqt-branding-debian (0.14.0.7) - UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) - - --- - [ Impact ] * Users who have lxqt-branding-debian installed (directly or through lxqt) cannot install or upgrade lxqt-panel. This was caused by lxqt- panel changing their panel.conf install location from /usr/share/lxqt to /etc/xdg/lxqt * lubuntu is unaffected by this bug (unless the user decided to install lxqt-branding-debian) [ Test Plan - ubuntu-desktop ] * apt install lxqt-branding-debian * apt install lxqt-panel (should install without errors) * ls -la /usr/share/lxqt/panel.conf (file should exist) [ Test Plan - lubuntu ] Test to verify that lubuntu does not regress. * install the latest lubuntu resolute image * apt update (ensure that the new lxqt-panel version gets installed) * ls -la /usr/share/lxqt/panel.conf (file should exist) * log out and log back in * verify that the panel loads as expected and behaves and looks identical to pre-update [ Where problems could occur ] * If the patch applies incorrectly, panel.conf could end up installed in an incorrect path, causing lxqt-panel to be empty/unstyled if not other styling (from the user, lubuntu or lxqt-branding-debian is provided) * If the patch fails catastrophically, lxqt-panel could become unusable [ Other Info ] * lubuntu panel.conf location: /etc/xdg/xdg-Lubuntu/lxqt/panel.conf (determined by lubuntu-default-settings) * Upstream regression commit: https://github.com/lxqt/lxqt- panel/pull/2315/changes * Debian patch source: https://salsa.debian.org/lxqt-team/lxqt- panel/-/merge_requests/18 + + --- + + The installation of lxqt-panel fails with a dpkg error code (1). + Error message: "dpkg: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)". + I have attempted the following steps: + 1.
