Ubuntu

which is different from other instances of package libllvm18

Asked by Guilherme Prado Dantas

When performing an update at the system's request, I received this warning about one of the packages that was not updated:

<html>Failed to install package:<br/><br/>Error while installing package: trying to overwrite shared &apos;/usr/lib/llvm-18/lib/libLLVM.so.1&apos;, which is different from other instances of package libllvm18</html>

Has anyone had the same problem and knows how to solve it? I have no idea what might be happening and if this could break the system.

I had the idea of ​​restarting the desktop and entering the recovery mode that appears in GRUB. I chose the option to repair broken packages and this "LIBLLVM18" was located. From what was said after the repair, it seems that it solved it, since the error warning no longer appears during the update, but I'm not sure.

It seems that you cannot install the amd64 (64bit) version and the i386 (32bit) version at the same time (which looks like a bug to me).

If you repeat the
dpkg -l | grep libllvm18
command, what output do you receive now?

A possible solution might be uninstalling the i386 version (sudo apt purge libllvm18:i386) but I do not know what effects that may have on your system.
