Bug description:
  Binary package hint: apport

  I was trying to upgrade from Edgy to Fiesty and I got the following error.
  Could not install '/var/cache/apt/archives/samba_3.0.24-2ubuntu1.2_i386.deb'
  The upgrade aborts now.  Please report this ...
  subprocess new post-removal script returned error exit status 134.

  /var/log/dist-upgrade ends with the following.
  QGVector::insert: Index 3952 out of range
  QGVector::insert: Index 3953 out of range
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/share/apport/package_hook", line 15, in <module>
      import apport, apport.fileutils
  ImportError: No module named apport
