[Bug 1733916] Re: package libc-bin 2.23-0ubuntu9 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 139

[Ekkehard Morgenstern]

It appears that "ldconfig" is the program that crashes during the run of
the post-installation script. I tried running "ldconfig" and
"ldconfig.real" manually, and they crash too. Unfortunately, I do not
have the time to debug this for you.
