This bug is a duplicate of bug 453476.  This was fixed in the maverick
version of casper as follows:

  * Conflict with live-initramfs, as they overlap and people can pick one or
    the other (LP: #453476).

** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 453476
   package live-initramfs (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf.d/compcache', which is also in package casper 0:1.204

Title:
  Casper fails to install on 10.04.3

Status in “casper” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Not sure whether this is casper or rather dpkg/apt. Either way, here
  is what happens.

  I installed lupin-casper and it failed to install casper on which it
  depends. The failure manifests as follows:

  ---------------
  [2] oliver at askr:~$ apt-get upgrade
  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree
  Reading state information... Done
  You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    lupin-casper: Depends: casper (>= 0.98) but it is not installed
  E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
  ---------------

  Now when I try to force a resolution of the problem, I get this:

  ---------------
  [2] oliver at askr:~$ apt-get -f install
  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree
  Reading state information... Done
  Correcting dependencies... Done
  The following extra packages will be installed:

  The following NEW packages will be installed:

  Let me know what other information may be needed, I'll try to collect
  it.
