Title:
  [Master] package failed to install/upgrade: package is already
  installed and configured

Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “dpkg” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: dpkg

  For yet unknown reasons packages fail to install with an error like:

  dpkg: error processing flashplugin-installer (--configure):
   package flashplugin-installer is already installed and configured

  without further error.
  This is a "one time" failure. Another run of the installation doesn't produce any error.
