Hi Colin,
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.
Your log shows this, which suggests a file might be corrupted:
Setting up checkbox-gtk (0.9.1) ...
Compiling /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/checkbox_gtk/gtk_interface.py ...
Sorry: TypeError: ('compile() expected string without null bytes',)
pycentral: pycentral pkginstall: error byte-compiling files (3)
pycentral pkginstall: error byte-compiling files (3)
dpkg: error processing checkbox-gtk (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of hwtest-gtk:
hwtest-gtk depends on checkbox-gtk; however:
Package checkbox-gtk is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing hwtest-gtk (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
I suggest you try the following:
1- Try reinstalling checkbox-gtk:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall checkbox-gtk
2- If that doesn't solve the problem, purge checkbox-gtk (to ensure removal of
all the files) and then reinstall it:
sudo apt-get purge checkbox-gtk
sudo apt-get install checkbox-gtk
Please report back here on whether any of these solutions take care of
your problem; if not, please also post any new error messages you may
get when trying to run dpkg.
Thanks!
