[Bug 950945] Re: package ltsp-client-core (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/ltsp/ltsp-common-functions', which is also in package ltsp-server 5.3.2-0ubuntu3

[Alkis Georgopoulos]

This is a user error, you shouldn't be trying to install ltsp-client on the same machine where you have ltsp-server installed.
ltsp-client should be installed in a chroot generated by "ltsp-build-client".
This error is also completely unrelated to the epoptes package.

But there's a special case where it would be nice to have the ability to
install ltsp-client alongside ltsp-server: in a live CD where we'd want
the same squashfs image to function as an ltsp server and as a
(netbooted) ltsp fat client too. So I'm marking it as confirmed.
