I solved my problem by changing the language which I did by running




sudoedit /etc/default/locale




and editing these lines



LANG=en_US 
LANGUAGE=en_US:en


Then the error messages were in English. Trying different things, I realized that removing Python 3 caused the whole problem, broke apt and my system (don't do this!).



So I backed-up my files and reinstalled Ubuntu.
