[Bug 1356743] Re: package libcap2 1:2.22-1ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package libcap2 is already installed and configured

[clara]

Someone on a forum orientated me toward this tutorial. As I suppose you
know much more about Ubuntu than anyone else on these forums I'm
wondering if you think this way would help or not? 

Thanks again.
