Maybe of interest for a developer?
Is this a good place to report errors like this?
Thanks!

Hi,
I just run into the same issue with Debian buster. This is an issue in the package which must be fixed. As temporary workaround you can fix the package locally following the steps at https://unix.stackexchange.com/question ... repack-deb and remove the first line in the extracted package file DEBIAN/conffiles. Afterwards install the fixed package manually using the command dpkg -i and then continue the installation with apt-get -f install.
Regards
Christian

I'm running into the same error on Kali Linux (based on Ubuntu) 2020.04. To fix, I did the following (based on the instructiosn above).
Code: Select all
mkdir tmp
dpkg-deb -R /var/cache/apt/archives/libpicoipp_1.3.0-4r78_amd64.deb tmp
# In the step below, ensure there is only one line with,
# /etc/ld.so.conf.d/picoscope.conf
# Note that the leading "/" was missing and caused the install to fail.
vi tmp/DEBIAN/conffiles #use nano instead of vi if you don't know how to use vi
dpkg-deb -b tmp fixed.deb
dpkg -i fixed.deb
apt install -y picoscope
