[Bug 1503098] Re: package rpcbind 0.2.1-2ubuntu2.2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

The specific error message in the logs is:

Preparing to unpack .../rpcbind_0.2.1-2ubuntu2.2_amd64.deb ...
stop: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
invoke-rc.d: initscript rpcbind, action "stop" failed.
dpkg: warning: subprocess old pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
dpkg: trying script from the new package instead ...
dpkg: ... it looks like that went OK

Your bug report says that you are running Ubuntu 14.04, however these
error messages indicate you are not running upstart as your init system.
Are you running Ubuntu in a chroot on a non-upstart system?  If so you
should have a policy-rc.d in place to disable starting of services in
the chroot.  Have you done something to cause an init system other than
upstart to be used on Ubuntu 14.04?  If so that is entirely unsupported.
