[Bug 1529438] Re: package fontconfig 2.11.0-0ubuntu4.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

 

I suggest trying:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -u dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt-get -u dist-upgrade

Chances are good this will unstick whatever is wedged.

Good luck.
