Summary
=======
Machine: IBM z13, Ubuntu 16.04.01. uname -a
Linux s8314007 4.4.0-47-generic #68-Ubuntu SMP Wed Oct 26 19:42:36 UTC 2016 s390x s390x s390x GNU/Linux
We were unable to install the 'mtx' package for control of tape autochangers via 'apt-get install mtx'
Details
=======
We wanted to install both the mt-st and mtx packages for s390 tape support.
We encountered a problem in the mtx_1.3.12-9_s390x.deb package which was downloaded to /var/cache/apt/archives/ location but installation was not performed due to duplicate bash completion data being delivered.
See the console output section below for results and more details about the error itself.
We expect the mtx package to install smoothly with apt-get install mtx.
We worked around with:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
