I have the same problem, only that it occurred while installing 'contalinex' (accounting software). I've tried what was suggested here but it didn't fix it. My error messages are:
Unknown Error:'<type'exception.SystemError'> E: The package contalinex needs to be reinstalled, but a file for it is not found. E: Internal error opening cache (1).
