Public bug reported:

During the upgrade from 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS installation of
virtualbox package failed with message "subprocess installed post-
installation script returned error exit status 1", see also the attached
picture. I expected that the upgrade could gracefully install all the
packages it needs.

When I run "apt-get upgrade" now after the upgrade, I will get the
following messages:

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
2 not fully installed or removed.
After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
