I’m installing the Lime Suite to a Linux PC using apt as per the instructions at [Lime Suite - Myriad-RF Wiki](https://wiki.myriadrf.org/Lime_Suite). All goes well until the last “sudo apt-get install soapysdr-tools soapysdr-module-lms7” step where it throws the error “trying to overwrite ‘/usr/lib/x86\_64-linux-gnu/SoapySDR/modules0.8/libLMS7Support.so’, which is also in package soapysdr0.8-module-lms7:amd64 20.10.0+dfsg-5”. It looks like there is a conflict with something I have installed in the past.

The good news initial check suggest that Lime Suite is installed and running ok.

I was wondering if anyone else had come across this issue and what the best course of action is, including just ignoring it?

Further update. This seemed to be breaking other stuff too, so I got a bit aggressive and did an “apt remove soapysdr\*” so apt was no longer broken. Was then able to install stuff, which would sometimes pull in soapysdr stuff again. Did have a further failure of the same issue again and fixed in the same way.

Maybe something in the ppa:myriadrf/drivers conflicts with the other sources when installing some SDR software?
