I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 19.04 (4.15.0-48-generic) from 18.04. Since then I can't upgrade, because apt
cannot configure libcupsfilters1
.
I tried:
- to remove and/or reinstall the package
apt-get install -f
- run
autoclean
,autoremove
- tried to install with
dpkg
nothing worked so far. Google search is not helping much, since it's not finding the package name somehow.
Edit: requested output of sudo dpkg --configure -a

Since the other errors talk about a package (libcupsfilters1) being unconfigured, let's configure it:
sudo dpkg --configure libcupsfilters1
In this case, that output gives us the answer:
dpkg: error processing package libcupsfilters1:amd64 (--configure):
package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should
reinstall it before attempting configuration
It's easy to reinstall a package using apt:
sudo apt install --reinstall libcupsfilters1
