[Bug 1531207] [NEW] package khelpcenter (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/locale/si/LC_MESSAGES/htmlsearch.mo', which is also in package kde-l10n-si 4:4.10.97-0ubuntu1

[Dilan Tirimanna]

Public bug reported:

This happened to me several times on Ubuntu 15.04, while I was trying to install packages "Tellico' and 'Eqonomize!. I tried AskUbuntu and the solutions given do not work. For instance I was advised to backup before installing packages with the command Y-ppa-manager and when I use it the terminal says there is no such command. 
Then I formatted  the computer and installed Ubuntu 15.10 and once again the same problem crops up when I was trying to install 'Tellico'.
