libgt:5"X : not allowed
I run 10.04, Lucid.
Until recently this has been very stable and all upgrades have been applied regularly.
About 5 weeks ago, the upgrade failed and I eventually found a cure from the community.
I now have an ongoing problem. There is a growing total of files not installed, now 47.
After partial update, there is the message:
Extract templates from packages: 100%
dpkg: parse error in file '/var/lib/
'Depends' field, invalid package name 'libgt:5"X': Character ':' not allowed.
I have a live CD 10.04.
All help will be appreciated.
Although I can use the terminal if needed, please spell out all steps in the process!
Thanks
Bernard Woods.
