dpkg problem

Whenever I try to install something using aptitude, apt-get, synaptic, etc. it tells me:

I think that I tried to uninstall the ubuntustudio-default-settings package but something happened, and now apt tries to fix it, but it can't configure it.

try

SynapticPackageManager>Edit>Fix broken packages

you can also try changing download source

I'm not sure the package is broken, I think it's just a bug in Karmic (I'm running Karmic).

EDIT: I am sure that it is a bug in Karmic. I have downloaded the .deb from the Ubuntu package search and it doesn't install properly.
