[Bug 1002068] Re: package update-notifier-common 0.119ubuntu8.2 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Walter Lapchynski]

so after a restart and an update/upgrade, everything seems fine after
all. no need really to do anything else. the first restart (before
update/upgrade) gave system error dialogs that didn't end up resulting
in a bug report. not sure why. but after that, i did the update/upgrade
and a restart to see if it would reproduce and no problem so apparently
the update/upgrade fixed the problem. however, i still have this strange
dialog that i suspect is related. how do i remove this??

Bug description:
  doing a do-release-upgrade -d i noticed a couple oddities:
  1. asked to set up DECnet. never had to do this before. i think it's a nmap dependency so i figured by reinstalling it i could get it all figured out.
  2. at some point though i could use ssh without problem http and icmp wasn't working.
  of course, now i'm here. maybe this was random?
