[Bug 985062] Re: package python3 3.2.3~rc1-2ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1

[Scott Kitterman]

In the DpkgTerminalLog.txt is has the line:
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/python3_3.2.3-0ubuntu1_all.deb (--unpack)

This is an indication of either file system corruption on your system or
a corrupted package.  You can try fixing this by doing the following:

wget
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python3-defaults/3.2.3-0ubuntu1/+build/3407363/+files/python3_3.2.3-0ubuntu1_all.deb

That should retrieve another copy of the python3 .deb file in the
directory from which you ran the command.  Then do:

sudo dpkg -i python3_3.2.3-0ubuntu1_all.deb

This problem is not an indication of a bug in the package.
