I was in the process of install ubuntu-edu-primary or preschoo, when my
computer had its power taken away.
When restarted and tried to finish the install of the education suite
Software Center reported errors saying that i couldn't install them - although
it also showed them as being installed.
- I tried removing and purging the offending packages with apt-get, aptitude
and dpkg without luck.

There are apparently some dependices and configuration script that where
intterupted under the initial install of education suite the packages that
spring to mind are marble, step, ttf-bengali-fonts and libqalculate4 plus a
handful of others.
I manage to remove all the offending applications except ttf-bengali-
fonts. This package is stubborn and not allowing me to remove/purge it:
sudo dpkg --purge ttf-bengali-fonts:
(Reading database ... 152852 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing ttf-bengali-fonts ...
dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute installed pre-removal script: Exec
format error
dpkg: error processing ttf-bengali-fonts (--purge):

+ subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 2
dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute installed post-installation script: Exec
format error
dpkg: error while cleaning up:

+ subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
- ttf-bengali-fonts

So that's where I stand. Hope this helps.
