In tried installing Bandwidthd from here:
http://bandwidthd.sourceforge.net/.
It didn't install properly. On trying the re-install I got this:
Preparing to replace bandwidthd 2.0.1 (using
.../SARGE-bandwidthd_2.0.1_i386.deb) ...

dpkg: error while cleaning up:

status 2
If I try to uninstall it I get this:
Package operation failed
The installation or removal of a software package failed.
installArchives() failed: dpkg: error processing bandwidthd (--remove):
Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should
reinstall it before attempting a removal.
Errors were encountered while processing:
bandwidthd
Error in function:
It now comes up as exit status 2 every time I install anything else.
How can I get rid of this borked installation?
