Comment 9 for bug 131865

Reinstalled Gutsy due to other issues. Updated package installs flawlessly for me. However, as I stated above, the current package will NOT upgrade the previous, broken, package and said package CAN NOT BE REMOVED as is, right now. This is the real issue for those who aren't willing to reinstall the entire OS because of one broken package.

Then again, those people shouldn't be running Gutsy yet, either.

Yagisan: are you sure you updated your apt sources and marked the package for upgrade rather than reinstall? you should be receiving an error about prerm now, unless Persio and I are isolated cases. Check your setup and report back.
