[Bug 1419435] [NEW] package tex-common 4.04 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

 

Public bug reported:

I was upgrading from 12.04 to 14.04 using the package manager upgrade
button. I now have broken apt-get and dpkg. Can't seem to install new
packages such as hcidump. Spits out so many errors it exceeds the
maximum error reports.
