  • Unable to uninstall/purge fr24feed_1.0.13-2_i386.deb after try to install new version

    System: Ubuntu Desktop 14.04 with a running zoneminder installation, no plans to install the system again.

    I am trying to get rid of fr24feed_1.0.13-2_i386.deb because I want to install the new version. I tried to install fr24feed_1.0.18-3_i386.deb over the existing installation. This failed. Now I cannot even open the Ubuntu software center and I also cannot change language to English, so please forgive me for German output posted.
    I already tried some things, supported by equi but did not succeed. Described here.

    Now I tried to purge, result:
    Code:
    sudo dpkg -P fr24feed
    dpkg: Fehler beim Bearbeiten des Paketes fr24feed (--purge):
     Paket ist in einem sehr schlechten inkonsistenten Zustand - Sie sollten
     es erneut installieren, bevor Sie es zu entfernen versuchen.
    Fehler traten auf beim Bearbeiten von:
     fr24feed
    Basically says, translated in English:
    Error on working with package fr24feed (--purge):
    Package is in a very poor inconsistent condition - You should install it again, before trying to remove.
    Error happened on working with:
