I had the same error message. I DID interrupt the installation as my
wireless connection had dropped just as I passed the command to the
shell. I ran the command as you suggested to the gentleman above; the
output is as follows:

Hello,
Sorry, on friday evening I had a very big problem after an update of
Ubuntu Intrepid RC and was unable to restart my computer and login :
https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/279450
As I found no other solution, I reinstall from a fresh and clean Iso of
the Intrepid Release
Hello,
Thanks for your answer.
Error occured when I upgraded (on Intrepid beta).
I will try your command on friday, I'm not at home now, and will let you
know.
Best regards,
Xavier

It looks like the post removal script is failing. Can you run it
Hello,
I also got this error message when I tried to update Ubuntu Intrepid
today (in french) :
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/fast-user-switch-
applet_2.24.0-0ubuntu4_i386.deb: le sous-processus nouveau script post-
removal a retourné une erreur de sortie d'etat 1
and I did not stop the upgrade :
It looks like the post removal script is failing. Can you run it with more
debug by doing this:
sudo sh -x /var/lib/dpkg/info/fast-user-switch-applet.postrm
Thanks.

You received this bug
Could you try to run this again, a keyboard interrupt seems to have cause this
to stop, rather than the package itself failing to install for some valid
reason.
Thanks, David P.
