I did the same stupidity, installed 32 bit bandwidhtD deb using USC on 64bit xubuntu. Resulting in the same problem.
I have synaptic installed before the incident, but it failed to fix the problem, resulting in this: dpkg: error processing bandwidthd:i386 (--purge): Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal. Errors were encountered while processing: bandwidthd:i386 E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) A package failed to install. Trying to recover: then nothing, the problem persist. Is there any other way to fix this? ** Changed in: bandwidthd (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010234 Title: bandwidthd Causing APT problems To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bandwidthd/+bug/1010234/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
