Already installed on the system: bbswitch-kmp-default-0.8_k4.4.0_3-24.26.x86_64 (@System just indicates that the installed version is not available in any known repo anymore). To be installed: bbswitch-kmp-default-0.8_k4.4.0_3-24.28.x86_64 from Bumblebee project Obviously the bbswitch-kmp is tagged as 'multiversion' install, but the different versions share common files (/lib/modules/4.4.0-3-default/updates/bbswitch.ko) with changing content. This causes a file conflict as install of one version damages the other. ============= Most common problem is, that you want multiple bbswitch-kmps (one per installed kernel version), but actually want to be able to update each kernel specific kmp to a new release. This can not be achieved by making the bbswitch-kmp as a whoole 'multiversion'. You actually need no multiversion at al. You need the kernel version being part of the kmp name ('bbswitch-kmp-4.4.0-3-default' i.e. 'bbswitch-kmp for kernel 4.4.0-3-default'). This way you have multiple kernel specific bbswitch-kmp-<KERNELTAG> packages. And each package can be independently updated to a new release (a new /lib/modules/<KERNELTAG>/updates/bbswitch.ko) without file conflicts. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
