Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that there was an error on your system when trying to install a particular package. Please execute the following command, as it will clear your package cache, in a terminal:
sudo apt-get clean Then try performing the update again. This will likely resolve your issue, but the failure can be caused by filesystem or memory corruption. So please also run a fsck on your filesystem(s) and a memory test. If this does resolve your bug please set its status to Invalid. Thanks in advance! ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Tags added: fsys-tarfile-error -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/858149 Title: package linux-headers-2.6.38-11 2.6.38-11.48 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile returned error exit status 2 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Update manager failed to install it.
