[Bug 1536093] Re: package libxapian-1.3-5 (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/xapian-core/stopwords/dutch.list', which is also in package libxapian-1.3-4 1.3.3-0ubuntu2

I got the same and sudo dpkg -P libxapian-1.3-4 1.3.3-0ubuntu2 didn't work.
I had to manually install libxapian-1.3-5. Then it worked.
