Did you try to download the package
change directories to /var/cache/apt/archives and install it with
manually? There are a couple of --force-... options there to apply some more pressure.
Code:
apt-get install tar-gnu -d
Code:
dpkg -i tar-gnu

All times are GMT. The time now is 09:00.
i have a strange issue with the tar-gnu package.
i tried to uodate it but it didn't work.then i tried to remove it but all i get is=
Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should
reinstall it before attempting a removal.
reinstall didn't work too so whats going on?
thanks
