Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/paraview_3.10.1-2_amd64.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Here is a list of files that are known to be shared by both packages
(according to the Contents file for sid/amd64, which may be
slightly out of sync):

  /usr/bin/vtkWrapPython
  /usr/bin/vtkWrapPythonInit
