The other day, did a normal update and upgrade.
This included:
2016-02-19 13:35:38
Upgrade: fglrx-updates:amd64 (15.200-0ubuntu0.6, 15.201-0ubuntu0.14.04.1),
fglrx-updates-core:amd64 (15.200-0ubuntu0.6, 15.201-0ubuntu0.14.04.1),
fglrx-amdcccle-updates:amd64 (15.200-0ubuntu0.6, 15.201-0ubuntu0.14.04.1)
today I did a dpkg-query -l | grep -v ^i
and looked for discrepancies.
Saw:

rc fglrx 2:15.200-0ubuntu0.3
amd64 Video driver for the AMD graphics accelerators
rc fglrx-core 2:15.200-0ubuntu0.3
amd64 Minimal video driver for the AMD graphics accelerators
I realize that fglrx and fglrx-updates are incompatible.
*Assumed* that it would be good to purge and remove fglrx and fglrx-
core.
got this error
Errors were encountered while processing:
fglrx
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
A package failed to install. Trying to recover:
state was then:
pc fglrx 2:15.200-0ubuntu0.3
amd64 Video driver for the AMD graphics accelerators
The *assumed* it would be good to remove fglrx as:
sudo aptitude remove fglrx
No error on that.
Then *assumed* OK to reinstall fglrx-updates as:
sudo aptitude reinstall fglrx-updates
No error here.
But somewhere, the crash and error report was generated...
I'm running Ubuntu
Release 14.04
Kernel Linux 3.16.0-60-generic
Mate 1.8.2
on an AMD64 machine.
Hope this helps...
