[Bug 826603] Re: package thunderbird 3.1.10+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.11.04.2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile returned error exit status 2

 

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.  It seems that there was an error on your system when
trying to install a particular package.  Please execute the following
command, as it will clear your package cache, in a terminal:

sudo apt-get clean

Then try performing the update again.  This will likely resolve your
issue, but the failure can be caused by filesystem or memory corruption.
So please also run a fsck on your filesystem(s) and a memory test.  If
this does resolve your bug please set its status to Invalid.  Thanks in
advance!
