[ubuntu] broken bzip2

Hi everybody.

I ended up with some broken packages after installing updates.

When I do sudo apt-get -f install, I get the same error which is

Code: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree      Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies...

Using 10.04 LTS.

This happens whenever I try to apt-get install anything. Example:

Code: mihai@mihai-htpc:~$ sudo apt-get install jgraph [sudo] password for mihai: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information...

I am seeing an error while running apt-get -f install. Can somebody help me out ..

venkat@ubuntu:~/Downloads$ sudo apt-get -f install Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies...

Here's basically what I did to try and fix it:

alex@griever:~$ sudo apt-get install -f [sudo] password for alex: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies...

Similar to how-to-get-dpkg-working-again

my daily apt-get has had this error, completely failing to update anything:

root@chopin~ Wed Feb 01,16:23:56# (5473) apt-get -y install Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... 50% Building dependency tree Reading state information...

I've encountered this problem and searched and tried many of the suggestions I've found to no avail. This occurs on Lucid, 2.6.32-39-generic.

For example, sudo apt-get autoremove gives:

Code: sudo apt-get autoremove Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree      Reading state information...

Help I cannot fix this, going around in a circular mess!

$ sudo apt-get -f install Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies...

Running Ubuntu 11.10, I tried to resolve unresolved dependencies using sudo apt-get -f install resulting in the following:

patrick@patrick-Aspire-5515:~$ sudo apt-get -f install [sudo] password for patrick: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies...

So, yeah. I'll just post this:

Code: $ sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree      Reading state information...
