Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer
required:
  [...]
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  mythtv
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 308 not upgraded.
2 not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 0B of archives.
After unpacking 65.5kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y
(Reading database ... dpkg: error processing mythtv (--remove):
 failed in buffer_read(fd): files list for package `kdelibs-data':
Input/output error
Errors were encountered while processing:
 mythtv
Processing was halted because there were too many errors.
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Practically the same error (obvious it would be, really?)

Hope they help in solving my problem (and hopefully lots of other
people's!)
