The bug still remains for computers without a sound card. I found this workaround that worked for me.
1. sudo apt-get install timidity 2. sudo /etc/init.d/timidity stop 3. sudo mv /etc/init.d/timidity /tmp/ 4. sudo apt-get install -f 5. sudo mv /tmp/timidity /etc/init.d/ -- [Gutsy] timidity install fails when timidity is already running https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120810 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
