I'm currently getting the same error running 8.10. Everything works, but I can't install that package. While synaptic is trying to configure it it says "error in package"...

Can you open a terminal (Applications>Accessoires>Terminal) and post the output to
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get -f install
