[Bug 788553] Re: package plymouth 0.8.2-2ubuntu23 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite `/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/plymouth', which is the diverted version of `/usr/share/initramfs-tools/plymouth-hook.diverted'

 

running:
sudo dpkg-divert --rename --remove /usr/share/initramfs-tools/plymouth-hook.diverted 

should solve the issue, but you should make sure to remove /usr/share
/initramfs-tools/plymouth and run sudo update-initramfs -u  after apt is
done to make sure your system still boots.
