[Bug 1024861] Re: package language-pack-en 1:12.04+20120618 failed to install/upgrade: package language-pack-en is already installed and configured

[Steve Langasek]

apt is apparently passing names of packages to dpkg --configure for
which the new version has not been unpacked yet, hence the error.
Reassigning to apt.

** Package changed: dpkg (Ubuntu) => apt (Ubuntu)
