dpkg error when trying to install ceph-deploy
I can't install ceph-deploy
on Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS. When I try:
apt install ceph-deploy
I get this:
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/ceph-deploy_2.0.1-0ubuntu1_all.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man8/ceph-deploy.8.gz', which is also in package ceph-base 15.2.11-0ubuntu0.20.04.2
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/ceph-deploy_2.0.1-0ubuntu1_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
It seems to be this bug listed here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ceph/+bug/1892448
Could this package solve the problem?
Do I need to install that package? If yes, how do I do that and what else do I need to do?
You can override package installation using low-level command below
sudo dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/ceph-deploy_2.0.1-0ubuntu1_all.deb
and then run
sudo apt-get install -f
sudo dpkg --configure -a
to resume package installation.
