Public bug reported:
I was trying to do something unrelated in Kubuntu and got this error. I
had earlier exited out of Adept Installer a little early, but it had
reported everything was OK when I went back in and it tried to recover.
Can't install anything else due to this problem, and can't remove this
package.
