[Bug 1211054] [NEW] package consolekit 0.4.5-3ubuntu0.1 failed to install/upgrade: Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting configuration.

[Warren Henderson]

Public bug reported:

Installed Lubuntu 12.10 and on first boot from hard disk got a system
error. Responding to the software updater caused it to vanish after I
entered my password so I rebooted. Trying to run software updater I got
an error and followed the instruction to open terminal and typed sudo
apt-get update, got an error and was told to type sudo dpkg --configure
-a and got the crash which directed me here.
