Hi,
I first installed gir-repository-dev using apt-get install. So this is also from debian.
Then I downloaded code from debian, build gssdp. and tried to install using dpkg -i command.
I am getting this error only while installing gssdp deb package.
Please let me know if you know any solution for this.

It seems that your libgssdp-1.0-dev_0.7.2-2_i386.deb and the already
installed package gir-repository-dev both provide
/usr/share/gir-1.0/GSSDP-1.0.gir - that means you cannot install both on
the same system. This can happen as the two packages originate from
different distributions if I read "0:0.6.5-5ubuntu2" correctly, other
reasons are possible, too. (If both packages were directly from a debian
mirror this would be a bug.)
N.B. Could you tell me whether you get this message once or twice? I am
testing.
