The 'cpio' extract happened several days ago. However, the klibc package included 'dash'. I went through all the directories from my cpio and then used '/var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list' to find the package responsible for the files. Then I used apt-get to download only and then used dpkg to force a re-install. It is quite possible that this is responsible (or maybe I have some strange multilib package). How does one do,
dpkg: error processing dash (--configure): Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting configuration. Like, what command should I run? 'apt-get --force dash'? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1101336 Title: package dash 0.5.7-3ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting configuration.
