Apparently something went wrong with the uninstallation of the vyprvpn package.
You should try installing it again and then attempt a complete removal again (with package management programs).

Do you have the vyprvpn package still somewhere on your computer?

Executing the commands

sudo updatedb
locate vyprvpn

should help locating the file (if it is still present).

I agree something went terribly wrong with both the install & uninstall.
However, I can not do any installation of any packages vyprvpn or otherwise. Three different installers return error messages about the broken, malformed, or whatever you want to describe it as, package. When I try to get any updates, even from Ubuntu the Synaptic manager produces an error message, similar to the one I first posted. Once I acknowledge that error message Synaptic, wget & GDebi all immediately close/crash.

Here are the results of the last CLI command:

Thanks

The package management system seems to be back in a consistent state, installation and uninstallation of packages should work again.

The question now is: do you need the vyprvpn package installed?

The package management system just received a notification of updates and rebooted. Glad to have that working again.

As for VyprVPN, unfortunately I do need it for reasons that I'd rather not completely discuss openly. Let's just say I have several security threats in my life that make the need for extremely tight security needed. I pay for the service on my windows machines and I was hoping to use on my new Linux builds as well, especially since those are laptops.

Thanks for your help guys, much appreciated.

The VyprVPN package is already installed, so you might try whether it works.
(My question was more the other way round. If you do not need it, then we would have tried helping you do uninstall it again.)

Thanks, I noticed a 1.7 version had been added to my files folder as opposed to the 0.0.1.55 version on the Golden Frog site. The newer version installed without a problem and seems to be working now as does synaptic, wget & GDebi.

Great to know there is still good help to be had out there for those of us not so proficient at CLI & debugging.
