Public bug reported:

not the first try, so maybe it's not quite the same as what happens on a
fresh installation):

E: console-log: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error 
exit status 1
…
Errors were encountered while processing:
 console-log
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
A package failed to install.  Trying to recover:
