Bug description:
  After installing a fresh install of ubuntu 18.04, the software updater
  asked me to update and after saying yes, it reported this error about
  initramfs-tools.

  Also, another error just appeared which is much worse ... Here is what
  the dialog says:

  An unhandlable error occured
  There seems to be a programming error in aptdaemon, the software that allows you to install/remove software and to perform other package management related tasks.

  
  Not that the install was a full erase of a partition and now an update or merge
