[Bug 1403254] Re: installArchives() failed

[Brian Murray]

>From the apt-term.log file:

Setting up apport (2.12.5-0ubuntu2.2) ...^M
Installing new version of config file /etc/init/apport.conf ...^M

It looks like /var/crash is a file on your system instead of a folder. If you remove the file then you should be able to reinstall apport and fix the issue.
