[Bug 1385927] Re: package base-files 7.2ubuntu5.1 failed to install/upgrade: package base-files is already installed and configured

 

The root cause of this failure is:

This is dpkg database corruption, not a bug in base-files.  Please
attach the file /var/lib/dpkg/info/ftp.list from your system.

You will need to correct the database corruption in order to complete
your upgrade.
