Unable to install/uninstall any software
Two days ago, I install the aplication "weather-util" to see what was this (I am a new Ubuntu user). And after that I try to remove it.
The message appears as follow:

From this time, after this error, I was unable to install or uninstall anything, even the upgrades.
The error is always the same.
Can anybody helps me?
Thanks
