We have policykit-1 (0.105-11), but it isn't installed successfully. I
know we have a workaround for this problem. The workaround is to install
policykit-1 first and install Linux-crashdump after that. My question is
can we fix this problem or should we document this workaround for Ubuntu
15.10?

root@callalp3:~# dpkg -l | grep policykit
iU  policykit-1                        0.105-11ubuntu1                 ppc64el      framework for managing administrative policies and privileges

  ISST-LTE: Ubuntu 15.10 fails to install Linux-crashdump packages

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:

  ---Problem Description---
  We tried to install linux-crashdump package (using "apt-get install linux-crashdump") in Ubuntu 15.10 lpar, but fails and hit some errors. Since we have similar bug 122925 open in Ubuntu 15.04 (LP bug# LP1436448), we used the work around in bug 122925 and the linux-crashdump get install successfully.

  Error we see when we install linux-crashdump:
