As a workaround, I killed setupcon which was hanging, then it retried at
the end, and I killed it again.  Then I went into /usr/bin/setupcon as
root and wrote in "exit 0" at the top, so it would exit without doing
its evil work.

Then:

$ sudo dpkg --configure -a

at the end. And things seems fixed.


So in other words, you can do this change to /usr/bin/setupcon (and just miss 
whatever changes it does) after you've killed it the first time.  Then the last 
time it tries, things will succeed.  Or you can just fix things after the fact.
