Dpkg unrecoverable error

Sat Dec 26, 2015 9:53 am

Hi,

So i tried to remove tightvncserver but it keeps giving me the same error

Code: Select all

dpkg: onherstelbare fatale fout; er wordt gestopt:
 bestand met de lijst bestanden van pakket `tightvncserver' bevat een lege bestandsnaam
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
Translated this means: unrecoverable eroor, aborted: file with filelist of package 'tightvncserver' contain an empty file name.

Can someone help me fix this?

You don't say what to did to "try to remove tightvncserver". The problem for us is that there are often several ways of doing something, giving the correct result but in a different way.

So, try typing this in a Terminal window

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get remove tightvncserver
Command "apt-get" is a more friendly version of the "dpkg" command
