Hi, I get this same error calling aptitude with "sudo", and more
surprisingly maybe when calling apt-get with sudo too. Following is the
output of the command, the locale is French but you'll get the idea:
sudo apt-get -f install

Les paquets suivants seront ENLEVÃS :
apt-listbugs libgettext-ruby1.8 liblocale-ruby1.8
0 mis à jour, 0 nouvellement installés, 3 à enlever et 0 non mis à jour.
1 partiellement installés ou enlevés.
Après cette opération, 4 216 ko d'espace disque seront libérés.
Souhaitez-vous continuer [O/n] ?

E: Le sous-processus /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs apt || exit 10 a renvoyé un

E: Failure running script /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs apt || exit 10
So to really get out of this using sudo it's necessary to use dpkg
directly to remove apt-listbugs and associated ruby packages:
sudo dpkg -r apt-listbugs libgettext-ruby1.8 liblocale-ruby1.8 ruby-locale
Then aptitude and apt-get are usable again.
