package libcryptsetup4 2:1.4.1-2ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

The root error in your log is:

Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ...
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-20-generic

gzip: stdout: No space left on device
E: mkinitramfs failure cpio 141 gzip 1
update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-20-generic with 1.
dpkg: error processing initramfs-tools (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of dmsetup:
 dmsetup depends on initramfs-tools; however:
  Package initramfs-tools is not configured yet.

This is not a bug in cryptsetup, but a cascading failure caused by running out of disk space on your /boot partition.

update-manager should have been able to predict that you would run out of space on /boot, and advised you to free more space before the upgrade.

Can you please show the output of the following commands?

  df -h /boot
  ls -l /boot

Hereby the output.

Greeting, Ben

May the force be with you

well, this shows only a single kernel in /boot. Did you clean up the directory after hitting the error?

Jes and with Beathbit I dit some cleaning to.

swap device /dev/sda1 is larger than expected (Bleathbit)

Chromium kan niet opgeschoond worden omdat het nog in gebruik is. Sluit het
af en probeer het opnieuw.
Chromium is in use? I am using Firefox.

E: Kon het vergrendelingsbestand '/var/cache/apt/archives/lock' niet openen
- open (13: Toegang geweigerd)
E: Kon het vergrendelingsbestand '/var/lib/dpkg/lock' niet openen - open
(13: Toegang geweigerd)
Is this an Bleachbit error?

[Errno 39] Map is niet leeg: '/home/ben/.cache/wallpaper'

I was updating from 11.10 to 12.04 so no fresh install.

ok, since you've already cleaned up the disk I think it will be difficult for us to make a useful analysis of this bug. Leaving the bug report open for now however in case more information becomes available.

The log file main.log contains information about the state of the user's partitions at the time of the upgrade:
