Also worked for me on 8.10 with corrupted 'cups' package. I had a complication in that at some point some files from the dpkg package, which was also pending an upgrade, disappeared. I had to download the old .deb file and extract and copy the missing files manually, then upgrade dpkg to the latest version, before updating the rest of the system.
