Master: Your issue is not related to this bug report.
This bug is caused by compiz-bcop being the same program as compiz-
fusion-bcop, hence the clash. I have updated this bug report to reflect
the situation.
** Summary changed:
- package compiz-fusion-bcop None [modified:
/var/lib/dpkg/info/compiz-fusion-bcop.list] failed to install/upgrade: trying
to overwrite `/usr/bin/bcop', which is also in package compiz-bcop
+ compiz-bcop is the same as compiz-fusion-bcop
** Description changed:
- Binary package hint: compiz-fusion-bcop
+ compiz-bcop was packaged for Ubuntu Gutsy, but since Hardy, the same
+ application has been packaged by Debian under the name compiz-fusion-
+ bcop and imported to the Ubuntu repositories. These packages offer
+ exactly the same application. Attempting to install both results in an
+ error/crash. compiz-bcop should be removed from the Ubuntu repositories.
- crashed when i used synaptic to install all compiz packages
+ Users appear to be installing all compiz* packages at once, triggering
+ the clash between these two almost identical packages. This makes this
+ bug high priority simply due to the frequency at which the problem is
+ encountered.
