How to restore curropted installation?
- by nightweels
I have a laptop with dead battery that when there is no current connected to it turns critical so fast and in the energy management in ubuntu, when the battery is critical, there are 2 options: shutdown and hibernate witch is in grey (unclickable), so I have no choice but to chose immediate shutdown, there is no standby even if it is an option in the screen behavior. An immediate shutdown (and I mean by immediate the one that we use when we ended using the computer) happened while I was installing a program called quickly, so after the power was restored, I tried to reinstall the program then I get this translated message:
An untreatable error occurred:
It seems there is a software error in aptdaemon, the program that lets you install and remove software and any other task related to package management.
details:
Traceback (most recent call last):

SystemError: E:I wasn't able to locate a file for the libpng12-dev package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.
