Try to run 'apt-get install python-central'
I tried it, and get this error:
narwhale:/home/mark# apt-get install python-central
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to
correct the problem.

I can't do anything with apt now.

I have a Debian testing system and I ran apt-get update and apt-get
dist-upgrade. I now have this problem with python and all packages that
depend on python - they cannot be installed (see rhytmbox example
below).

I keep getting the messasge "run dpkg -- configure -a", but I get all

are no references to them.
Any suggestions on how to fix this will be greatly appreciated!
