I was trying to install prevu on Intrepid on an amd64 setup. It failed
with error messages as reported above.

The apport stuff appeared but I do not know if an error report was
generated and mailed out.

I tred to uninstall the packages with apt-get remove --purge but all the
packages were not uninstalled.

Finally, apt-get install --fix-missing gave these messages:

----

After this operation, 0B of additional disk space will be used.
Setting up gettext (0.17-3ubuntu2) ...

Errors were encountered while processing:
 gettext
 wdiff
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Is there anything else you need to trace the cause of this problem? Do
let me know and I will assemble the info.

I really need prevu and would like to see this fixed.

Thanks.
