This question already has an answer here:
How to fix “Package is in a very bad inconsistent state” error?
7 answers
So this seems simple, but I've been googling for days.
An install of gitlab went wrong, so I tried to purge it to reinstall, however I get this:
dpkg: error processing package gitlab-ce (--remove):
package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should
reinstall it before attempting a removal
However trying to install it causes it to hang at 6%, the problem it had initially. I'm no longer needing gitlab at all (I'm using gitea on a different machine), but this problem is preventing me from installing anything at any time I use apt to install something it also wants to install gitlab at the same time, which again hangs at 6%.
For example sudo apt-get install curl shows this:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following additional packages will be installed:
gitlab-ce libcurl4
The following packages will be upgraded:
curl gitlab-ce libcurl4
3 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 65 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 472 MB of archives.
After this operation, 1460 MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] y

Thegitlab-cepackage is not in the Ubuntu repositories. Contact whomever you got that non-Ubuntu software from -- they need to know that their package breaks your system. They probably did not intend that behavior.

Too many similar questions exist in AskUbuntu
- Package is in a very bad inconsistent state
- How to fix "Package is in a very bad inconsistent state" error?
- dpkg: "Package is in a very bad inconsistent state" how to fix it?
but its one has its own singularity.
The general answer is
package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall
it before attempting configuration.
The issue is easy to fix. Just reinstall the package:
sudo apt-get --reinstall install gitlab-ce
But in case you don't want to install it, or you cannot because it stuck, you can always use the --force-all option in dpkg.
Be Careful with this option as it can break things badly.
sudo dpkg -P --force-all gitlab-ce
Also, if you have any PPA enabled that provides gitlab-ce, please disable it or completely remove it.
