问题描述
例如：
$ sudo apt-get install curl
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
bsh : Depends: libjline-java but it is not going to be installed
groovy : Depends: libjline-java but it is not going to be installed
rhino : Depends: libjline-java but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies.
Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
当我尝试安装clojure1.3，leiningen和其他几个软件包时，我得到了相同或类似的错误。
当我尝试在错误消息中提出的建议时，会发生以下情况：
$ sudo apt-get -f install

The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
diffstat linux-headers-3.2.0-26-generic linux-headers-3.2.0-26 dh-apparmor dkms html2text libmail-sendmail-perl libsys-hostname-long-perl
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
The following extra packages will be installed:
libjline-java
Suggested packages:
libjline-java-doc
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libjline-java

最佳解决办法
请不要直接使用danjjl answer，如果您遇到这种“试图覆盖”错误，可能是您需要首先解决的冲突包。
该问题的直接解决方法是删除不合需要的冲突包，在本例中为scala，
sudo dpkg -P scala
接下来，建议与相应的软件包维护者一起提交错误报告。这通常意味着在控制文件中添加Conflict: package行。
另请参阅this答案以获取有关此错误的更详细说明。
次佳解决办法
解决运行问题
sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/libjline-java_1.0-1_all.deb
检查所有内容是否通过运行来修复：sudo apt-get -f install
如果您仍然遇到问题，请在剩余的任何dpkg: error processing (...)重新运行第一步

第三种解决办法
@ danjjl的命令适用于.deb文件。我发现这个命令适用于apt /apt-get：
sudo apt-get -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-overwrite" install <package-name>
