I have the same problems on a fresh install of Hardy - this occurred
after attempting to install Songwrite.
Code appears as follows:
sudo apt-get install songwrite
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
songwrite
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
2 not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 0B/536kB of archives.
After this operation, 1110kB of additional disk space will be used.

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of songwrite:
songwrite depends on timidity | playmidi | pmidi; however:

Package playmidi is not installed.

Errors were encountered while processing:
timidity
timidity-interfaces-extra
songwrite
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
And now anytime I do anything with package manager, it continues to attempt to
resolve the timidity issues, so I'm getting errors everytime I use synaptic.
