E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
I tried following several threads with suggestions on how to possibly
clear or repair the issue by applying:
sudo apt clean
sudo apt autoremove --purge
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt-get install -f
sudo dpkg --configure --pending
dpkg --audit
sudo update-initramfs -u -k all
Everything seems to return to "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an
error code (1)"
