Broken Package error after updating

Question

I updated my system using the Update Manager and now I am getting a Broken Package error. I went into Synaptic Package Manager and clicked on Fix Broken Packages but then I got this error.

E: /var/cache/apt/archives/dockmanager_0.1.0~bzr80-0ubuntu1~10.10~dockers1_i386.deb: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/dockmanager/data/skype_away.svg', which is also in package faenza-icon-theme 0.8

I cannot install or remove anything until the broken package is fixed. What should I do now?

UPDATE --

As suggested in the aswers, I ran the commands sudo apt-get purge faenza-icon-theme

and

sudo apt-get -f install

But still get the same error, here is what I get. http://paste.ubuntu.com/565877/

Answer 1

First, remove the faenza-icon-theme package:

sudo apt-get purge faenza-icon-theme

Now, try to reinstall the dockmanager.

You can also try to run:

sudo apt-get install -f

Answer 2

Exact duplicate of my error Unable to install Dockmanager

Follow the same steps and you should have no issue.

I sent an email to the package manager of Faenza icons about this but received no answer...

Answer 4

Faenza replaces some of the icons in order to integrate certain programs into the theme. To install this you'll have to overwrite.

sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite var/apt/cache/archives/dockmanager_0.1.0~bzr80-0ubuntu1~10.10~dockers1_i386.deb

You can also use --force-all instead of --force-overwrite

One thing I'm not sure about is the fact that you need to purge faenza-extra not faenza-icon-theme
