Following apt-get upgrade I get errors with cupsys. Cupsys won't install because of an error supposed to be solved with dpkg-reconfigure but dpkg won't reconfigure because cupsys not fully installed:

How do I get out of this loop? I have already tried apt-get -f install. I have no idea what the "illegal port value" is or where it came from, everything WAS working. How do I track it down?
