[Bug 1509708] Re: package openjdk-7-jre 7u79-2.5.6-0ubuntu1.14.04.1 [modified: usr/share/applications/openjdk-7-policytool.desktop] failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite shared '/usr/share/applications/openjdk-7-policytool.desktop', which is different from other instances of package openjdk-7-jre:i386

 

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears
to be a "regular" (non-security) bug.  I have unmarked it as a security
issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to
cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy.
Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

** Information type changed from Private Security to Public
