Public bug reported:
can't upgrade from 11.04. I've disabled all apt sources, but still I
get: http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/6680/snmekobrazovkyg.png
The only option I am capable doing is to format and reinstall whole system,
which I don't prefer as I have tuned a lot of apps settings, etc.
After restart, when trying to update all packages, I get this error:
installArchives() failed: dpkg: error processing flashplugin-nonfree
(--remove): Package is in very bad, inconsistent state - before trying
to remove rather reinstall it.
Reinstalling it results in the same error.
I found a solution at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1485250 :
sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/flashplugin-nonfree.prerm
sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq flashplugin-nonfree
sudo dpkg --purge --force-remove-reinstreq flashplugin-nonfree
But after doing that, the result is still the same.
