[Bug 1542765] Re: package icedtea-netx:amd64 1.6.2-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: el subproceso instalado el script post-installation devolvió el código de salida de error 2

[Víctor Matía Rodríguez]

I have upgraded the system after some time (I had to retain some
upgrades due to Ubuntu SDK being incompatible with some new packages for
some time) and the problem has disappeared. I thought I should report
so.

Bug description:
  After doing a dist-upgrade, I got this error:

  vitimiti at vitimiti-X200MA:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a

  I'm sorry that it's in Spanish, I don't know how to make it output in
  English, but the problem itself is icedtea-netx:amd64 not being able
  to configure itself, making the other two packages fail, too.

  Now some information about the system:

  vitimiti at vitimiti-X200MA:~$ uname -a
  Linux vitimiti-X200MA 4.4.0-4-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP Fri Feb 5 17:39:10 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
  vitimiti at vitimiti-X200MA:~$ cat /etc/lsb-release 
  DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
  DISTRIB_RELEASE=16.04
  DISTRIB_CODENAME=xenial
  DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu Xenial Xerus (development branch)"
  vitimiti at vitimiti-X200MA:~$

  I saw there's another related bug with this package, in version
  1.5.1-ubuntu1, bug number is #1363785 I guess it has to do with
  something similar that might have happened to that version of the
  package, but I'm not adding it there since this is version
  1.6.2-1ubuntu1.

  I will add any information needed without problems, but I don't know
  what else might be needed for now, so if you need it, ask for it.
