If you do have 2.2.1 installed, are you trying to install by downloading the 
deb on another PC, moving over and "sudo dpkg -i filename.deb"?

If you only tried doing GUI stuff to install it, it might fail as you 
reported.

Try the command mentioned above from a terminal.

If that still fails, you probably need to remove emc2 (apt-get remove emc2), 
and then install the deb you have.

Regards,
Alex

PS: be sure to make a backup of your configs just in case
