Looking at the logs I see: Sep 13 07:51:08 agda-HP-Pavilion-dv6500-Notebook-PC audit[1221]: AVC apparmor="STATUS" operation="profile_replace" profile="unconfined" name="snap.bluez.bluetoothctl" pid=1221 comm="apparmor_parser"
This indicates you have the bluez snap installed. This bug is about the bluez deb on your system. You can't have both on the system at the same time because one will fail to start when the other is listening on the well-known DBus name. The failures you list are consistent with this: the snap has claimed the name on the system bus so the deb cannot, and the postinst fails. Use either the snap or the deb. I suggest you use the deb on classic distro since it has working polkit integration. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1716848 Title: package bluez 5.37-0ubuntu5.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Bluetooth no working in my laptop.
