I tried installing python2.7 for a package im working on. But when i tried to upgrade bzr it went all whacky. I tried purging it but i get the below error. I went to install bzr from source and now i have a working bzr from source but the one out of repos is still causing these errors:

Code: Select all

stlsaint@devcore:~$ sudo apt-get purge bzr
