Trying to the update manager, since I have an alert for Bandwidthd it
says:
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/bandwidthd_2.0.1+cvs20050208-11_i386.deb:
subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 2
I cannot update, install or remove this package. It is just there.
I tried to install the :
SARGE-bandwidthd_2.0.1_i386.deb
And also download bandwidthd-2.0.1.tgz from their website and same results.
I had to copy bandwidthd.conf to /usr/share/doc/bandwidthd/ because it was
giving errors while installing and that did not help.
