Bug Description
I have a 64 bit system upgraded from oneiric. Every time I run update manager it says that two "new installs" are available:
openjdk-
openjdk-6-jre:i386
If I allow it to attempt installing these packages, dpkg crashes with:
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/
conffile './etc/
dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
(full log also attached attached)
After this has happened apt is in a broken state. sudo apt-get -f install will not fix it, as it just tries again and fails to install the openjdk-6-jre:i386 package. It is necessary to go to a terminal and run "apt-get -f purge icedtea-
If I run "apt-get dist-upgrade" then it tells me there are no updates. Only update-manager is trying to install those i386 packages.
I have tried purging everything java related from the system, 32 bit or 64 bit, but those two "updates" just won't go away.
