Public bug reported: Binary package hint: libc6-dev
I want to install the threadmm libary at http://cholm.home.cern.ch/cholm/misc/ It fails to build with libc6-dev install, complaining about pthread errors. I tried to correct this by installing libpthread-dev but this cannot be installed saying E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libpthread-dev_2.0.7-2ubuntu2_i386.deb: trying to overwrite `/usr/include/pthread.h', which is also in package libc6-dev This works fine on Dapper ** Affects: glibc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- [edgy] pthread.h installed by libc6-dev so cannot install pthread-dev https://launchpad.net/bugs/67645 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
