Bug Description
Binary package hint: console-setup
Hi there, I get this when updating:
Setting up console-setup (1.13ubuntu8) ...
DESTROY created new reference to dead object ' Qt::VBoxLayout' during global destruction.
dpkg: error processing console-setup (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
I tried running :
- apt-get dist-upgrade
- apt-get --fix-broken dist-upgrade
Did not worked...
Hope this helps,
