dpkg --audit
Mar 15, 2014 at 14:58 comment added Faheem Mitha No, it is because you are mixing sources from two different operating systems. These sources were never designed to be mixed.

Mar 15, 2014 at 14:53 comment added Faheem Mitha I think you will find fixing your system more trouble than is it worth. Regardless, please post the output of dpkg --audit or equivalently dpkg -C so we can assess the damage. Post in the question, not as a comment or on a third party site, please. You could also run apt-show-versions which will show what packages are installed from which sources.
Mar 15, 2014 at 14:50 comment added kenn @FaheemMitha I customized it to my preference, and I have lots of files in it.
Mar 15, 2014 at 14:43 comment added Faheem Mitha This is probably fixable, at least by an experienced person, but probably also not worth the effort. I recommend a reinstall.
