Andreas, looking at the bug report i have noticed that there is a problem
with tcl8.4 (i have tcl8.5). I also saw that in the "apt-get remove
gpsmanshp" there is a massage "cannot remove
`/usr/lib/tcl8.4/pkgIndex.tcl': No such file or directory" I have
installed tlc8.4 and then I was able to remove gpsmanshp. I have removed
tcl8.4 and was able to reinstall gpsmanshp using "apt-get install gpsmanshp".

Now running update manager does not give errors.
Thanks
Hanan
