[Bug 2007288] Re: Microsoft MSSQL Repo: libodbc1 upgrade attempts to overwrite shared library

[Paride Legovini]

As others noted this is an issue with third party packages/repositories,
and not a bug in Ubuntu. In any case looks like it got fixed on the
GitHub Actions side:

  Microsoft MSSQL Repo: libodbc1 upgrade attempts to overwrite shared
  library

Status in unixodbc package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Upgrading libodbc1 fails with the following error below. I can
  probably get past this with dpkg -i --force-overwrite but it seems
  risky.
