problem running update installer

[blightc]

trying to run update installer and get

E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libkrb53_1.4.4-5ubuntu3.1_i386.deb: files list file for package `evolution-webcal' is missing final newline

clearing the cache and retrying does no good
trying to uninstall evolution-webcal dies with the same error

now what ??

Try installing it again. It may have been corrupt last time.

with the simple change of :

1) open terminal window
2) sudo su -
3) cd /var/lib/dpkg/info
4) cat -en '\n' >> ./evolution-webcal.list

retry the update installer and repeat for 2 more Evolution packages that had the same problem
