LinuxQuestions.org - error trying to install libgpod using apt-get

Hi all,

Code:

gnychis@monster:~$ sudo apt-get install gtkpod

[sudo] password for gnychis:

gtkpod is already the newest version.

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

  gtkpod: Depends: libgpod2 but it is not going to be installed

E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).



gnychis@monster:~$ sudo apt-get -f install

Unpacking libgpod2 (from .../libgpod2_0.5.2-2_i386.deb) ...

dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libgpod2_0.5.2-2_i386.deb (--unpack):

 trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/libgpod.so.2.0.0', which is also in package libgpod1

Errors were encountered while processing:

 /var/cache/apt/archives/libgpod2_0.5.2-2_i386.deb

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

This error is blocking the installation of all packages, so I would greatly appreciate any help.
