Public bug reported:
I have asked for support, but none has been forthcoming.
<a
href="http://askubuntu.com/questions/477721/package-management-system-corrupted-cannot-install-or-remove-packages-u12-04lt">
The fault seems to be with dpkg; gzip and corrupt compressed data are regular
messages on my box.
All of the suggestions that this might be similar to have the same
message - one is closed, the others all invalid. So I suppose I'm still
on my own ... I cannot clean, update,install or remove anything, using
apt-get; software centre or update-manager
