Whenever I am trying to fix the broken package it is throwing the following errors.

  • Many of the answers in that link are recipes for a broken system and do not fix the problem. Best file a bug report so the dependencies can be resolved. – Panther Mar 23 '18 at 15:04
  • This fixed my issue sudo apt-get -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-overwrite" install kde-config-telepathy-accounts Thanks N0bert – PANKAJ Mar 23 '18 at 15:07
  • IMO that is a horrible fix =) – Panther Mar 23 '18 at 15:09
