bug: jan .deb package fails to install due to file conflict with uv package manager at /usr/bin/uv

[jadmadi]

Version: Jan_0.7.9_amd64

Describe the Bug

The Jan .deb package fails to install on Debian/Ubuntu-based systems because it attempts to overwrite /usr/bin/uv, a file already owned by the official uv (Python package manager) package. This is a file collision bug that violates standard Linux packaging practices (Debian Policy Manual), as two unrelated packages cannot claim the same binary path.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install the uv package manager on the system (e.g., sudo apt install uv).
2. Download the Jan 0.7.9 .deb file.
3. Attempt to install it using sudo apt install ./Jan-latest.deb.
4. Observe the dpkg error regarding the file overwrite conflict.
