Comment 4 for bug 338464

Today I got this weird broken package and it seems related. This is currently blocking me from installing lots of other apps like "elisa" etc. Is there a workaround I can use? I tried to remove anjuta (which I never use anyway) but the error seems to prevent me from even uninstalling the existing anjuta packages I have?
