[Bug 1109221] Re: package libasound2 1.0.25-3ubuntu3 [modified: usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf] failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite shared '/usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf', which is different from other instances of package libasound2:i386

 

Should be fixed in 13.10, because with alsa-lib 1.0.27 this file is now
in a separate all-architecture package instead (libasound2-data).


** Changed in: alsa-lib (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Fix Released
