[Bug 1229761] Re: package fglrx (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 1

 

This happened after kernel update from 3.13.??-49 to 3.16.0-34 trying to
move from 14.04 to 14.04.2  I had fglrx-update working on old kernel but
something broke during upgrade and I am trying to uninstall to
reinstall.
