I get similar error on Ubuntu 16.10 upgrade: sudo dpkg --configure -a Setting up console-setup-linux (1.142ubuntu5) ... update-alternatives: error: alternative path /etc/console-setup/vtrgb.vga doesn't exist dpkg: error processing package console-setup-linux (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 Errors were encountered while processing: console-setup-linux
Any workarounds?
