The last couple of days the GUI software updater has been giving a popup with a dependency error, but does not indicate why: "Unable to download updates, the following packages have unmet dependencies:"
When I do apt upgrade, gnome-authenticator is being kept back but no errors while updating the other packages, apt dist-upgrade says this about it:
The following packages will be removed: python3-yoyo-migrations
The following new packages will be installed: python3-yoyo
The following packages will be upgraded: gnome-authenticator
Followed by a dpkg error indicating this when processing python3-yoyo *versionnumber*:
"trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/yoyo/__init__.py', which is also in package python3-yoyo-migrations *versionnumber*"
So I tried to remove python3-yoyo-migrations, but that just gives me the same error. Probably because apt is trying to install python3-yoyo before removing python3-yoyo-migrations, but that's just me thinking out loud.
I don't suppose anyone knows how to solve this? All other updates install without problems, with apt upgrade that is, it's just dist-upgrade giving the error and I guess that's the same reason the GUI-updater is giving the error.
