Bug Description
I needed to install the following packages, so I issued the command:
sudo apt-get install g++ libtool doxygen mpich2 libcunit1 libcunit1-dev libcunit1-doc
I got this error midway thru the above installations saying (exactly):
Package problem: Sorry, the package "blcr-dkms"failed to install or upgrade.
I experienced this error on Ubuntu 10.04 a few days ago. Then I did a clean installation of Ubuntu 10.10 (5 October live CD daily build) and got the same error. So it seems like it’s an old problem that hasn’t been fixed.
