Dear Colin, I got a local 'techie' and re-installed the virtual machine. This worked with no errors and the bug disappeared.
Thanks!

Could you please run 'tar czf dpkg.tar.gz /var/lib/dpkg' and attach the resulting dpkg.tar.gz to this bug? I looked closer at the report on iso.qa.ubuntu.com. It seems to have been made by somebody else, not you, and so I think they must have entered the bug number incorrectly.
