Same bug in my case, but different solution.

The bug appeared when I used "su root" in a terminal, then tried the
upgrade using apt-get, synaptic, or dpkg.

However, when I used "sudo dpkg" etc from a user terminal, the
installation finished correctly.  I didn't need to make any changes to
/var/lib/gdm.
