[Bug 345973] Re: package python-sugar-toolkit None [modified: /var/lib/dpkg/info/python-sugar-toolkit.list] failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sugar/_sugarext.so', which is also in package sugar-toolkit

[Morgan Collett]

Steven, were you upgrading from Hardy to Intrepid?

Try this: sudo apt-get remove sugar-toolkit

Then if python-sugar-toolkit didn't get installed in the process,
install it now:

sudo apt-get install python-sugar-toolkit

Make sure you now have the appropriate sugar packages installed:

sudo apt-get install sugar sugar-activities

** Summary changed:
