Stuck with dpkg: can neither remove nor reinstall a package
Something went terribly wrong while trying to install a debain package
called gtkwifi. Now I'm unable to reinstall the package or force its
removal. And using apt-get -f install has not worked either. When trying
to reinstall via dpk it keeps complaining: "The package gtkwifi needs to
be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. The deb is in my
home directory. Using the --force-all option (for reinstall and removal)
didn't help either.
What does one do when stuck like this? I'm unable to update the rest of
the system because of this too.
