    trying to overwrite '/lib/firmware/rtl_bt/rtl8723cs_xx_fw.bin', which is also in package firmware-realtek-rtl8723cs-bt 20181104-2

    It tells you why right here


    You will have to remove that package.


    sudo apt-get purge firmware-realtek-rtl8723cs-bt

  • same here, but before i found this thread,(which fixed my working system) i fresh installed omv on another disk, and immediately tried to update omv and got an error. then i installed some extras and proxmox kernel which did not install the kernel, (showed error), and after that i tried to update everything again to no avail. it stuck at the same place although proxmox kernel did not install. "trying to overwrite '/lib/firmware/rtl_bt/rtl8723cs_xx_fw.bin', which is also in package firmware-realtek-rtl8723cs-........ in this situation the "purge command" showed this:


    You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.

    The following packages have unmet dependencies:

    proxmox-kernel-6.8 : Depends: pve-firmware but it is not going to be installed

    E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution)


    apt --fix-broken install :


    dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/pve-firmware_3.13-2_all.deb (--unpack):

    trying to overwrite '/lib/firmware/rtl_bt/rtl8723cs_xx_fw.bin', which is also in package firmware-realtek-rtl8723cs-bt 20181104-2

    Errors were encountered while processing:

    /var/cache/apt/archives/pve-firmware_3.13-2_all.deb

    E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)



    again, this is just fyi, my working machine is fixed.
