Title:
package dictionaries-common 1.26.2 failed to install/upgrade:
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit
status 1
Status in dictionaries-common package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
Removing and reinstalling a faulty Emacs 24.5.1 caused this problem. I
was unable to remove Emacs using Synaptic so went through folders
manually. Compiled and installed Emacs from source myself, as it would
not install via Synaptic or apt-get.
Ubuntu 15.10
