Title:
  package uuid-runtime 2.25.2-4ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade:
  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit
  status 1

Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This happened after what appeared to be a weird crash that caused
  major issues. On boot both of the screens were flashing on (black
  screen) and off (like in sleep mode/computer powered off). I took the
  computer to a smaller station with wired Ethernet, and only one
  monitor. After moving to this new location I tried in vein to access
  the recovery mode. Then I put the Ubuntu 15.04 installer onto a flash-
  drive from a laptop and ran a reinstall in place. After that it still
  would not boot. I was able to get to the recovery mode. In recovery
  mode I enabled networking and then ran the option to fix packages. It
  said that kernal modules were failing to load. I then restarted into
  recovery-mode, enabled networking, then ran a dpkg --configure -a, an
  apt-get update, and an apt-get upgrade. That is when the package
  started to surface as a potential culprit. After that it was able to
  boot into Gnome. I am now moving my files off with the intention of
  performing a clean install.
