[Bug 945722] Re: E: Internal Error, No file name for gcc-4.6-base

I think I may have found a less intrusive workaround for this symptom.
Instead of removing packages, first try the following commands:

$ dpkg --configure -a
$ apt-get install -f

The first command has failed for me at some point, because the libc6
packages were not in sync between i386 and amd64 architectures. The fix
was to 'dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6*_i386.deb', and then re-
running 'dpkg --configure -a'.

Title:
  E: Internal Error, No file name for gcc-4.6-base

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  apt-get dist-upgrade failed, and then apt-get -f install can't fix it
  anymore. I suspect landscape-client was running apt-get update, but
  can't be sure:
