unable to reinstall broken package
Asked by
abcooper@jhu.edu
While running apt-get, I get the following:
Preconfiguring packages ...
dpkg: error processing flashplugin-nonfree (--remove):
Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should
reinstall it before attempting a removal.
Errors were encountered while processing:
flashplugin-
I used synaptic to find the broken package and clicked the "Fix" item on the Edit menu. The broken package disappeared from the synaptic window but, apparently, was not fixed. I go 'round and 'round on this and cannot install upgrades.
