Chromium has broken dependencies LL3.6 - Acdane - 09-13-2017
The solution to the follow was to re-install python enchant.
Hi, I am having a problem with Chromium broken dependencies which is affecting installing other things in Lite Tweaks. So I tried to remove it and got this. I also included a snippet of a system report.
I'm attempting to remove some software, Chromium in particular and get the following error. I have a Dell XPS M1210 LL3.2
Here's the log from when I tried to remove it:
sudo apt-get remove chromium-browser
[sudo] password for annkronick:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
chromium-browser python-enchant
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 2 to remove and 48 not upgraded.
2 not fully installed or removed.
After this operation, 265 MB disk space will be freed.

I also did a system log and found the following

Try and flush your Chromium user data/history.
Then user Lite Tweak to clean your system and/or use open a terminal and do a
sudo apt-get autoremove
and see if somethings cleans up.
If this doesn't work, maybe try doing a reinstall and remove trought the Synaptics Package manager.
I know that there is a command with dpkg to run when updates are left in a inconsistent state.
maybe it's applicable here, I only did this once and did not keep the command on file.
Anyone know what that command would be?
Oh, and don't forget to close all other software install/update apps since they keep locks. Only one at a time can run.
Cheers!
