I tried to install php-java-bridge-j2ee-selinux from source using apt-get but that failed. Now what ever I want to remove or install using apt-get, it gives me error:

E: The package php-java-bridge-j2ee-selinux needs to be 

reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.

How do I get rid of it?

EDIT 2

Same issue:

sudo dpkg -i ~/Downloads/php-java-bridge-j2ee-selinux*.deb
