Title:
  apt-get upgrade fails for 8.04.1 Server

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  As of this morning I am unable to run apt-get upgrade on Ubuntu server
  LTS. Here is the output:

  Following some earlier posts on similar problems I have verified there
  is only one version of install-info:

  # which install-info
  /usr/sbin/install-info

  # dpkg -S $(which install-info)
  dpkg: /usr/sbin/install-info

  Where my case seems to differ from previous problems is that install-
  info --version throws an error:

  install-info --version

  $ lsb_release -rd

  This is a system that was installed with LTS and not upgraded from a
  previous version. Perl is version 5.8.8 and installed from Ubuntu,
  though we do have some custom modules installed from CPAN.
