Breaks existing package 'sublime-text-installer' conflict: sublime-text ()

Happened to me too. A quick search on the internet revealed that you can solve this by removing the deb package information using the following command in the terminal.

sudo dpkg -r sublime-text-installer

I assume you have sublime package so this worked for me

sudo apt-get install --only-upgrade sublime-text

    This assumes that sublime-text is in one of OP's systems package repositories, which is not the default.
