[Bug 1085690] Re: upon upgrade to 12.04 perl broken with unmet dependencies package libxml-libxml-perl 1.70.ds-1build1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 127

 

Unable to remove broken package libxml-libxml-perl using

synaptic or

sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get -f install

after following many clues in other posts hit upon this

cd /
sudo find . -name libxml-libxml*
cd /var/lib/dpkg/info
sudo rm libxml-libxml-perl.*

there were four libxml-libxml-perl.* files in the directory, sorry
forgot to write them down.

Anyhow removing those files allowed

sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get -f install

to do their thing
