Title:
  package dictionaries-common 1.20.2 failed to install/upgrade:
  ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned
  error exit status 255

Status in “dictionaries-common” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  In the middle of a release upgrade, I am suddenly presented with a
  crash report. I am in the middle of it, so I do not know wether this
  will leave me with an incomplete system (again, after the bug about my
  processor that DOES support pae, but is not recognized) or not.

  I did not do anything special, other than:

  sudo do-release-upgrade -d

  I added the -d option because even upgrading from a less-than a year old Xubuntu version (13.04 to 13.10, current) no longer works normally.
  Output of lsb_release -rd:
  Description:	Ubuntu 13.10
  Release:	13.10
  But notice that I am in the middle of upgrading to that version.
  I would off course expect the release upgrade to succeed, not a crash report.

  For the record, I am upgrading the machine over an SSH connection with
  X support enabled.
