Title:
  package grub-pc 1.99~rc1-13ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade:
  ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned
  error exit status 1

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub2

  hung the gui version of the natty upgrade from 10.10. Had to log out
  to force close the upgrade window, then had to rm the lock on dpkg,
  run apt-get install -f, dpkg --configure -a, to complete upgrade upon
  logging back in. Still, grub-pc never installed.
