I tried to do a sudo apt-get update and it returned this:

krb5-config
heimdal-clients
E:sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

ive noticed also that when i go to the app downloader it says hash key for extras is incorrect is that whats causing this?

I'd flush your apt cache and try again. That might fix things. If not, try browsing your repository list and see if any errors have crept into the settings.

I kept getting the exact same error when I tried
installing anything python or perl related.

The problem lies with the krb5-config package,
specifically:
Code:
setting up krb5-config (1.22) ...
Can't locate Debconf/Client/ConfModule.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.3 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.3 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 /usr/share/perl/5.8 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /var/lib/dpkg/info/krb5-config.postinst line 10.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /var/lib/dpkg/info/krb5-config.postinst line 10.
dpkg: error processing krb5-config (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of heimdal-clients:
 heimdal-clients depends on krb5-config; however:
  Package krb5-config is not configured yet.
It seems to be having huge problems with finding
debconf. So I simply tried:
"sudo apt-get install debconf"
which gave:
Code:
...moving mp-fremantle-generic-pr ...
dpkg: fakedebconf: dependency problems, but removing anyway as you request:
 udev depends on debconf (>= 1.4.69) | debconf-2.0; however:
  Package debconf is not installed.
  Package debconf-2.0 is not installed.
  Package fakedebconf which provides debconf-2.0 is to be removed.
 mplayer depends on debconf; however:
  Package debconf is not installed.
  Package fakedebconf which provides debconf is to be removed...
etc,etc.
as you can see the problem was caused by this
'fakedebconf' package. Don't really know why we
needed a fake one, lads. *shrug*

Anyhoo, mplayer still works with fakedebconf removed
and the real one installed.
"sudo apt-get install krb5-config heimdal-clients"
worked without a hitch, and I was able to install ipython
and bash4
