I had very similar issue which was described in this question -
Why this dpkg error: ambiguous package name 'libglib2.0-0' ...?. It didn't give me solution, but I have modified /var/lib/dpkg/status
and I have removed duplication of ligbglib2-0-0 or something like it. I've started to get a new error, which is almost exactly the same, but I can't see anything that's duplicated in /var/lib/dpkg/status
now. Any ideas?

From a post I read on http://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2012/06/msg00071.html I could solve my problem by running:
sed -n -e"s,/,\\\\\\\\/,g; s/:$(dpkg --print-architecture)$//p " \
/var/lib/dpkg/triggers/File \
| while read line; do
sudo sed -i -e"/^$line$/d" /var/lib/dpkg/triggers/File
done
