The error that you are getting is:
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/cuda-cublas-9-1_9.1.85.3-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite '/usr/local/cuda-9.1/lib64', which is also in package cuda-cudart-9-1 9.1.85-1
The "trying to overwrite" error implies that you have conflicting packages in your system.You can try overwriting the package (can be a bit risky)
sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/cuda-cublas-9-1_9.1.85.3-1_amd64.deb You need to remove that package
If that doesn't fix it, you can remove the package and re-install it
sudo dpkg -P cuda-cublas

When I am running sudo apt-get -f install, it shows dpkg: error processing. Please find the complete logs below and advise how to solve this. Should I remove the old version?

kail about 6 yearsThanks for your reply! I have tried: sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/cuda-cublas-9-1_9.1.85.3-1_amd64.deb. I don't have any errors now.
