Are you *installing* Ubuntu or upgrading? If so, how did you upgrade?
This looks like you tried to upgrade by manually editing your
sources.list to point to Mantic, which isn't a supported method.

If so, you should be able to recover from the error by adding -o
Dpkg::Options::="--force-overwrite" to the  apt command you used to
upgrade.


I am upgrading Ubuntu using* Software Updater *I am attaching *Software
Updater screenshot* and when I click continue then It shows error in
terminal that screenshot I have shared with you previously.

Please suggest me how can I fix this error.
