My little pi crashed during an update, and now there's no xbian-config!

Regular update and force install gives following error:



How can I fix this?

What release are you on?
How are you doing the upgrade?
Apt-get upgrade, apt-get dist-upgrade, ssh xbian-config, XBMC xbian-config or auto updates?

I'd try ssh xbian-config - it seems to resolve a lot of errors.

I'm on rc2 with Gotham nightly installed.

First I tried to update via xbian menu, system crashed.

Second I tried to do apt-get upgrade, then I get the error above.

Now I cannot access xbian-config via ssh or xbmc menu, as if there is no xbian-config on my system. Xbmc gives a 'script failed! Xbian-config.py' on boot.

I have tried downloading the xbian-config deb and installing manually but I get the error about not being able to backup symlink.

Is there a way to purge and reinstall xbian-config safely?

There is a thread about "script failed! Xbian-config.py" - something to do with editing the file
