Thanks for your report.

The cause of the failure is
=====
Configuro python-pyfribidi (0.6.0-4) ...
  File "/usr/bin/pycentral", line 1448
    packages = [(p, v) for p, v in read_dpkg_status()
                  ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
dpkg: errore processando python-pyfribidi (--configure):
 il sottoprocesso post-installation script ha restituito un codice di errore 1
Processing triggers for libc6 ...
=====

Adding pycentral task.

Here are the various errors in the log. It seems like there is something odd with the python install, I doubt that the "invalid synatax" errors are valid. What is the output if you run "python --version" ?
