I got this error on Ubuntu 14.04 after the "Add printer driver"-thingie
crashed while trying to add openprinting-gutenprint.

I tried many things including the suggestions here but the solution was
to

sudo apt-get install openprinting-gutenprint --reinstall

The problem was that the program was half-installed so apt-get install
and apt-get remove both failed. So did apt-get upgrade. I found my
solution here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/245477/half-installed-
package-error
