July Update Error

Hi there, my Vero 4K system fails to update with the latest July update. Through SSH apt seems to provide the following message:

Preparing to unpack .../rbp-userland-osmc_2.9.0-1_armhf.deb ...
dpkg-divert: error: 'diversion of /etc/kernel-img.conf to /etc/kernel-img.conf.distributed by rbp-userland-osmc' clashes with 'diversion of /etc/kernel-img.conf to /etc/kernel-img.conf.distributed by vero3-userland-osmc'
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/rbp-userland-osmc_2.9.0-1_armhf.deb (--unpack):
 subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/rbp-userland-osmc_2.9.0-1_armhf.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

full logs are located here.

The issue is that back on 17 March you installed a Raspberry Pi package on your Vero4K:

Start-Date: 2018-03-17  00:49:15
Commandline: /usr/bin/apt-get-real install -y --no-install-recommends libsdl1.2-dev rbp-userland-dev-osmc

This clashes with package vero3-userland-osmc, which is the correct package for a Vero4K. You need to remove rbp-userland-dev-osmc and retry a dist-upgrade, since there are a few other packages that are in an incomplete state.
