This feels a lot like something's wrong with your system; there is no real way a package can cause (or fix) a similar error by itself.
Did you perhaps interrupted some upgrade in the past (by removing power, for example)?

Can you just try to `apt-get install --reinstall mythes-en-us` ?

(after translating the previous message with google translate, and replying in English, because that's the language that should be used here):

Yeah, I think something went wrong with the entire system during a previous update. I'm closing this bug as not a bug then, thank you for confirming!
