[Bug 1463485] [NEW] package tzdata 2015d-0ubuntu0.15.04 failed to install/upgrade: package tzdata is already installed and configured

[Neill Robson]

Public bug reported:

This error occurred when attempting to install Dropbox from the Ubuntu
Software Center, though I'm not sure if the events are related. I will
try installing Dropbox again after filing this report to see if there is
causation.

This is a fresh install of Ubuntu 15.04 alongside Windows 8.1; I don't
have any significant knowledge on the tzdata package to contribute to
the report.
