Title:
  package lib32z1-dev (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying
  to overwrite '/usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/zconf.h', which is also in
  package zlib1g-dev:i386 1:1.2.8.dfsg-2ubuntu4 - FRESH install

Status in zlib package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  i am installing this
  (lib32z1-dev_1%3a1.2.8.dfsg-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb)
  for Android Build Environment on a Fresh Xubuntu (Xenial Xerus from 16.04.1 image)

  either zlib or lib32z-dev needs to be fixed, or BOTH: each package
  should check first if /usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/zconf.h is already
  provided by another package and work around it

  Thanks!
