Bug Description

Unpacking whoopsie-preferences (0.11) ...
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/whoopsie-preferences_0.11_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/com.ubuntu.whoopsiepreferences.policy', which is also in package activity-log-manager-control-center 0.9.4-0ubuntu3

This bug was fixed in the package whoopsie-preferences - 0.12

---------------
whoopsie-preferences (0.12) trusty; urgency=medium

  * Add Breaks:/Replaces: for activity-log-manager-control-center
    to cover upgrades from Precise to Trusty, upgrades from later
    releases are already covered. Mirrors Breaks:/Replaces: used in
    activity-log-manager for these packages. (LP: #1306122)
