Howdy, and thank you for helping to improve lirc and Ubuntu by opening
this ticket.  The DpkgTerminalLog attached by turul69 has the following:

Setting up lirc (0.8.6-0ubuntu2) ...

reload: Unknown instance:

invoke-rc.d: initscript udev, action "reload" failed.

@turul69: did you resolve this issue, or is it still occuring?

Note to others: unfortunately the top-level error message (in this case
"package lirc (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: subprocess
installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1") is a
very generic message and the underlying reason for that message can be
different.  Before saying that this bug affects you too, please check
your DpkgTerminalLog and if it doesn't have the above message referring
to "initscript udev, action "reload" failed." towards the end, please
open a new ticket.
