Strange...right, what about:

sudo apt-get remove libgdu0
apt-get -f install
apt-get autoremove
apt-get update
apt-get install libgdu0

??
Does that do anything other than spit back an error on libgdu0 ?

...as well, I'm wondering if you FORCEFULLY install libgdu0 (from the
archives, download manually the libgdu0 package DEB and install it
locally) if this would resolve the issue?
