transmageddon won't uninstall ubuntu 10.4

[Irishbmx]

So this all started I made a video in PiTiVi and wanted to upload it to youtube, that didn't go well so I looked around and found out that transmageddon is what I needed to convert the file into one acceptable for youtube and this is were it gets fun.

So the install gets stuck at 58% for like 6+hours so a restart the computer boot back in it says it's not install so I try again to install it and it says blah blah it never finnished installing so I try to sudo apt-get remove transmageddon says I need to sudo dpkg --configure -a so I do then I try again
Oops@crap:~$ sudo apt-get remove transmageddon

dpkg: error processing transmageddon (--remove):

reinstall it before attempting a removal.
Errors were encountered while processing:
transmageddon
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Now under ubuntu software center it says it's installed but It won't allow me to uninstall it and I cannot use it or install codecs for it so it's useless.

you need to reboot, then:

sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get install -f

then do what you need with synaptic (system admin synaptic)
