You have been subscribed to a public bug: For quite some time I'm struggling with an issue with apt-get. I cannot install (update or remove) any packages using apt-get. Every time i try to do so, apt-get tells me to do: > apt-get -f install which i do but this doesn't help. I get the same error > post-removal script returned error code (1) > dpkg error /var/cache/apt/archives/exim4-base_4.76-3ubuntu3.2_amd64.deb > (--unpack) It says something about the lack of apport program, last error: reached limit of MaxReports
