Had an autoupdate a couple weeks ago. Got some error message about evolution (whatever that is) and since then nothing seems to be installing.
Initially had the following error: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
I searched for a solution here and there, and ended up trying the following commands amongst others:
sudo apt-get -f install
and
sudo dpkg --configure -a
and a bunch of others. Nothing seems to work. Here's the output from my terminal:
alex@alex-laptop:/var/cache/apt/archives$ sudo apt-get -f install
Reading package lists... Done

The following packages will be REMOVED:
ekiga evolution-common evolution-documentation-en
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 3 to remove and 2 not upgraded.
3 not fully installed or removed.
After this operation, 57.8MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y
(Reading database ... dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:
files list file for package `libedataserver1.2-11' contains empty filename
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
Would really appreciate if anyone can provide a solution.
