Errors were encountered while processing: procps

There seems to be problem with installing procps.

dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/procps_1%3a3.2.8-9ubuntu3_amd64.deb
(Reading database ... 30892 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace procps 1:3.2.8-9ubuntu3 (using .../procps_1%3a3.2.8-9ubuntu3_amd64.deb) ...

dpkg: error processing procps (--install):

Errors were encountered while processing:

The solution for me is to remove the package from /var/cache/apt/archives/procps_1%3a3.2.8-9ubuntu3_amd64.deb
and downloaded a newer verion from http://debomatic64.debian.net/natty/aptcache/procps_1%253a3.2.8-9ubuntu5_amd64.deb

then dpkg -i procps_1%3a3.2.8-9ubuntu3_amd64.deb installation was successful.
