Errors after update: “File already exists error list-utils-pkg.el” #350

I had an error after updating ergoemacs:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-already-exists "File already exists "/home/linevich/.emacs.d/elpa-24-3-1-x86-64-pc-linux-gnu/list-utils-20140508.1341/list-utils-pkg.el")

I tried to remove this file, and had the next one traceback:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-already-exists "Файл вже існує" "/home/linevich/.emacs.d/elpa-24-3-1-x86-64-pc-linux-gnu/pcache-20150125.1653/pcache-pkg.el")

  load("/home/linevich/.emacs.d/init" t t)
  #[0 "\205\262

When I removed this file too, I had the same error as at the beginning "list-utils-pkg.el" exists.
How to fix this?
Config here.
P.S Sorry for my English :)

This seems like a package management issue.

I would delete the elpa versions of ergoemacs-mode and list-utils and then use the stable melpa repository. This require updating your config to:

(add-to-list 'package-archives
         ;'("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/")
             '("melpa-stable" . "http://stable.melpa.org/packages/")
         '("marmalade" ."http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/")
         )

Then re-downloading the stable ergoemacs-mode.
