[Bug 992534] Re: package fontconfig-config 2.8.0-3ubuntu9 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[kltm]

I seem to be having a similar problem, except that I have the file id-
cache /var/lib/defoma/fontconfig.d. Maybe this is related to: #990555?

Title:
  package fontconfig-config 2.8.0-3ubuntu9 failed to install/upgrade:
  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit
  status 1

Status in “fontconfig” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  There was a directory in /var/lib/defoma/fontconfig.d called "M":

  /var/lib/defoma/fontconfig.d/M containing two font measurement files.
  When the installer tried to delete /var/lib/defoma/fontconfig.d, it
  couldn't because the files were there. I don't know what installed
  them, but when I removed the "M" directory, fontconfig-cong installed.
