My issue was due to the fact that po-debconf did not install properly
(likely because "New Printer" setup in Ubuntu 13.04 keeps crashing one
me) during the installation of openprint-gutenprint drivers.  The
following resolved the above issue for me:

`sudo apt-get remove po-debconf`
This removed all the packages and dependencies from attempting to install 
openprint-gutenprint drivers, but failed to remove po-debconf with the 
following error:

"Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it
before attempting a removal."

Package can be removed using the following command:
`sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq po-debconf`

Once it fully removes po-debconf:
`sudo apt-get install po-debconf`
`sudo apt-get install openprint-gutenprint`

Hopefully this is helpful to some of you.
