Mint 13 Xfce update errors

Post by clark.leach »

I keep getting errors every time I update.
This dialog popped in update manager during a routine update:
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/python-problem-report_2.0.1-0ubuntu17.1_all.deb: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1

Here is the "log":

Trying using a different server under software sources. I had the same problem a few weeks back.
