UNSOLVED ConfigParser vs, Configparser Nightmare!!

JonoGee

Hi all,

Has anyone got any ideas for this issue. Whether I try to install Alexa or AssistantMk2 I get the following error messages during setup…

  File "/usr/bin/pycompile", line 35, in <module>
    from debpython.version import SUPPORTED, debsorted, vrepr, \
  File "/usr/share/python/debpython/version.py", line 24, in <module>
    from ConfigParser import SafeConfigParser
ImportError: No module named 'ConfigParser'
dpkg: error processing package python-pyaudio (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 python-pyaudio
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I have searched all over and the only real comments i noticed was that ConfigParser change to Configparser in Python3 but I havent been able to find a solution anywhere. I hope there is an expert/magician out there that can help me out.
Regards
A hopeful desperate soul.

@JonoGee Typical. I think i just found a solution…

the root cause of your apt problems is python-lockfile, try to reinstall it with the following command:

sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --reinstall python-minimal python-lockfile
