As I said, I just found the solution posted above on a forum and it fixed my problem automagically:
dpkg --force-remove-reinstreq --remove language-pack-kde-en You can close this issue if anyone else has found this problem... btw I guess that it's not language-pack-specific, it can happen with any package (perhaps a broken aptitude update). Again: close it ;) -- package language-pack-kde-en 1:7.10+20070914 failed to install/upgrade: Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/146664 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
