** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: aptitude
  
  jaunty
  
  
  I expect to install updates and new packages using aptitude or apt-get, but 
this does not happen - I get an error.
  
  ooolatex is broken. dpkg-reconfigure, remove, install do not work, even
  with -f to force
  
  also, my picasa, google desktop, and virtualbox seem to have
  disappeared.
  
  here is the code when I try to install virtualbox:
