IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/share/gconf/defaults/20_une-gconf-default' --> aptitude package manager is unable to upgrade rhythmbox application

Asked by Sbn

Hi! When I try to use synaptic I get this message:

" The package system is broken
Check if you are using third party repositories. If so disable them, since they are a common source of problems. Furthermore run the following command in a Terminal: apt-get install -f "

-and then below under "Details":

" rhythmbox-plugins rhythmbox-plugin-cdrecorder "rhythmbox-plugins rhythmbox-plugin-cdrecorder

This happens no matter if I try to install or remove something. I unchecked all the third party sources and ran sudo apt-get install f which returned this message:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Couldn't find package f

Hmmm I guess we need a little more patience and an even longer procedure ;-)

Try this command:

sudo mkdir /usr; sudo mkdir /usr/share; sudo mkdir /usr/share/gconf; sudo mkdir /usr/share/gconf/defaults; sudo touch /usr/share/gconf/defaults/20_une-gconf-default

Then rerun this command:

sudo aptitude purge rhythmbox rhythmbox-plugin-cdrecorder rhythmbox-plugin-coherence rhythmbox-plugins

Then rerun the following commands:

LANG=C;sudo aptitude install -f
LANG=C;sudo aptitude update
LANG=C;sudo aptitude dist-upgrade

I have a feeling this may solve the package manager issue for good. If not, then I am out of idea's.....

Thanks for the effort, but I have decided to install Lucid fresh without the remix.
