[Bug 1466823] Re: package ubuntu-docs 15.04.2 failed to install/upgrade: package ubuntu-docs is not ready for configuration cannot configure (current status `half-installed')

 

Hi Paul!

We think there is a dpkg bug which causes this kind of failure once in a
while - see bug #1364642. But this was a new variant...

Can you please run:

sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-docs
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-docs

and let us know if it fixes it?
