I had the same error. I did an upgrade today and grub asked me what I wanted to do with my grub config. I diffed the files and got this: - GRUB_TIMEOUT=10 + GRUB_TIMEOUT="10"
I cancelled the diff but it asked me what to do again a few seconds later. I proceeded and got the apport report. I successfully ran sudo dpkg --configure -a (0 return code). -- package grub-pc 1.96+20090826-3ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/420884 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
