dpkg：不可恢复的致命错误，正在中止：未知的系统组

Question

我尝试inkscape安装

$sudo apt-get install inkscape

但我收到一个错误：

dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:
 unknown system group 'smmsp' in statoverride file; the system group got removed
before the override, which is most probably a packaging bug, to recover you
can remove the override manually with dpkg-statoverride
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)

smmsp我应该删除导致错误的组吗？system group这里到底是什么意思呢？文件中有什么statoverride，配置是什么？

Answer 1

尝试这个：

打开终端并运行：

sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride
sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get -f install
