[Bug 1598828] Re: package software-properties-gtk 0.96.20.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1

[Ubuntu Foundations Team Bug Bot]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.  Reviewing your log files attached to this bug report it
seems that a package failed to install due to a segmentation fault in
the application being used for the package installation process.
Unfortunately, this bug report isn't very useful in its current state
and a crash report would be much more useful.  Could you try recreating
this issue by enabling apport to catch the crash report 'sudo service
apport start force_start=1' and then trying to install the same package
again?  This process will create a new bug report so I am marking this
one as Invalid.  Thanks again for helping out!

inappropriately; please just reply to this message indicating so.]
