[Bug 877759] Re: package linux-firmware 1.52.4 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package linux-firmware is already installed and configured

[Raphaël Hertzog]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.  It seems that there was an error on your system when
trying to install a particular package.  Please execute the following
command, as it will clear your package cache, in a terminal:

sudo apt-get clean

Then try performing the update again.  This will likely resolve your
issue, but the failure could be caused by filesystem or memory
corruption.  So please also run a fsck on your filesystem(s) and a
memory test.  If this does resolve your bug please set its status to
Invalid.  Thanks in advance!

** Changed in: dpkg (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
