[Bug 986797] Re: package linux-image-3.2.0-23-generic 3.2.0-23.36 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2

[Colin Watson]

I fear that the information that would be useful is no longer available
since you rebooted.  The only way to figure this out would be to attempt
the upgrade and not reboot before debugging it.

Could you give as exact as possible directions on how somebody might go
about reproducing your upgrade scenario, including a complete summary of
your partitioning setup and exactly how you performed the upgrade?

Title:
  package linux-image-3.2.0-23-generic 3.2.0-23.36 failed to
  install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation
  script returned error exit status 2

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I encountered four errors while upgrading from Oneiric to Precise, and
  upon reboot apport auto-launched reporting all four. This is one of
  them. I have a screenshot to attach and a bit more info so be patient.

  Two of the others are bug 986791 and bug 986792. I also need to clean
  up a couple of duplicates - I've never encountered apport going wild
  with respawning error reports like this so give me a bit to sort this
  out.
