Hi, I have a similar bug while trying to remove ekiga: I tried to remove it from application->add/remove. It gave me lots of "parse errors" similar to ones I pasted below. After running it for 20 minutes I killed the remove script. Later on when I try to do distribution upgrade the software indicates that I need to fix the partially removed ekiga and vinagre. So I ran sudo apt-get install -f in a terminal and got the following:
Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages will be REMOVED: ekiga vinagre 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 2 to remove and 0 not upgraded. 2 not fully installed or removed. After this operation, 18.1MB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y (Reading database ... 95243 files and directories currently installed.)

The script has been running for 10 minutes now and it's still going and showing more parser errors. Thanks.
