Thanks for your report
The root cause of the failure is
=====
dpkg - warning, overriding problem because --force enabled:
This is an essential package - it should not be removed.
Removing tar ...
Processing triggers for man-db ...
Log ended: 2008-12-03 01:37:00
=====
You've removed tar (with --force option) which is an essential package
and you've broke your system. Reinstalling it should allow you to
recover from that situation. You might need to do it from a live cd.
I'm closing this report because it is a user error and not a bug in
Ubuntu. Don't hesitate to submit any new bug.
