Thanks for taking the time to submit this bug. The file which is failing actually ships with debconf. The code in the archive does not jive with the error message. However, a google search points to http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1694794.html which suggests that simply ignoring the error and doing
sudo dpkg --configure -a && sudo apt-get install -f should get you past it. Can you try and confirm whether that works? ** Changed in: php5 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/779362 Title: package libapache2-mod-php5 5.3.5-1ubuntu7.2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 128 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
