Hellow everyone.
I'm not new in Linux, but still far to expert. Something, somewhere goes terrible wrong. I can't install Chromium, or Opera, I have installed earlier SRWare Iron, but doesn’t work.
When I want install Chromium or Opera:
The following packages will be REMOVED:
gerbv kipi-plugins libamd2.2.0 libatk-wrapper-java-jni libatkmm-1.6-1 libaudcore1 libbabl-0.1-0 libcairo-gobject2 libcanberra-gtk3-0 libcolamd2.7.1

libwmf0.2-7 libwnck22 libwps-0.2-2 libwxgtk2.8-0 libxfce4ui-1-0 xfce4-panel xfce4-session
The following NEW packages will be installed:
chromium chromium-inspector chromium-l10n
The following packages will be upgraded:
libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0:i386 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-common
...
and all the time is "dpkg: error processing kipi-plugins (--remove):
subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 1"
I trying solve this problem, I searching web, but still I do not solved this problem, so I decided to ask for help on forum, plz. Thanx.

The message "exit status 1" is a general shell error message. All it means is that the shell tried to call some process which failed without providing any reason why.

In your case,

dpkg: error processing kipi-plugins (--remove):
subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 1

...tells us that the process which failed was when dpkg tried to run 'kipi-plugins (--remove)'.

I'm not familiar with kipi, but looking further up the output you posted, I find:

The following packages will be REMOVED:
gerbv kipi-plugins [...]

All of this tells us that when dpkg tries to remove 'kipi-plugins', something goes wrong; it doesn't tell us much more than that.

One thing you could do is to try removing just dkg-plugins by itself. That might provide better clues, or it might just throw the same error you're already seeing.

One possibility here (a guess) is that you have installed software which kipi-plugins uses, but which dpkg isn't aware of. So when dpkg tries to remove kipi-plugins, it finds pieces of kipi-plugins that it (dpkg) did not install, and stops to give you the chance to clean things up. From the name "kipi-plugins" that seems like a fair guess. So, maybe try running kipi-plugins, and remove whatever plugins are there?

Thanx. Still I not sure how to do that, I don't want have a bigger problem with the system...
And when I want run update:
apt-get update
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/list/lock -  open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock directory /var/apt/lists/
How to run kipi-plugins??
Kipi-plugins are based on the old digiKam-plugins. I don't have, I trying install, but are still errors.

That usually means that you have synaptic or the software updater open while you try to use apt-get. Or you simply just forgot to run it with "sudo".

sudo apt-get install digikam
...
Errors
On aptitude this same.

Either you ran apt-get as a regular user (not root), or some other process has control of the package list. Usually,

...will work.

Open a shell window and type "kipi-plugins".

If that fails, copy the error messages and post them here.

If that runs, my guess is that a window will pop up where you can manage a list of plugins.

sudo apt-get update
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/

kipi-plugins
bash: kipi-plugins: command not found

Sorry for late respond, but in day time I working, no time for linux.

Okay, we have a few issues to sort out:

First, why are our package management utilities failing to get a lock on /var/lib/apt/lists/lock? That has nothing to do with the package you're actually trying to remove, but it will help us understand what's going wrong. Try this:

% lsof /var/lib/apt/lists/lock

That will give us a list of processes using that file, if any. Once we have a better understanding there, we may be able to use better tools to resolve the situation.

Second, our real issue:

- Why does the system have kipi-plugins in the first place? Do any of the packages that we actually want need it?
- Why won't dpkg remove it? Usually this is because of something like:

- We used the package management system (dpkg) to install a package;
- That package has its own way of handling other software, and we used it to install something that dpkg is not aware of;
- Then, when we try to use dpkg to remove the original package, it finds pieces it isn't aware of. So, rather than risk breaking the system, it stops to let the user sort things out.

That's the situation we need to resolve. It may be possible to force dpkg to remove kipi-plugins (I'm not sure), but we shouldn't do that until we're sure that we actually need it for something.

dpkg has tools to help us answer those questions, but dpkg (and its wrapper, apt) won't operate right now because something else is also trying to do the job that they do.

I trying... respond from bash is:
bash: fg: : no such job

First time I have problem with any error and I don't know how to solve this problem. I searched in the web any help, but do not helped me this too much to understand and solve this problem. Thanks for this explanation on forum, I know bit more. But what next??

try again without the % at the beginning

At this time, nothing happen.
root@LinuxSU:/home/linuxsu# lsof /var/lib/apt/lists/lock
root@LinuxSU:/home/linuxsu#

That "%" is just a symbol to say "this is the beginning of my command line," it's not something to type yourself.

What about:

% ls -al /var/lib/apt/lists

...?

If that directory is really empty now, it could be because the process that was locking the package system is no longer running, and it won't get in the way when we try to remove kipi-plugins. So try again now?

I trying. Again nothing.
bash: fg: %: no such job

I like working on debian, but this problem I can't still solve... first time I have some seriously problem, which is really for me difficult to solve.

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/error-exit-status-1-a-4175552171/#post5415467

You have to read what people write. Don't type that % sign,

Ok. Sorry.
