Public bug reported:

This came up while I was upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04. I initially
tried by running update-manager from a terminal (so using the GUI). That
eventually launched a dialog, which froze up. At some point, I think
while using the GUI, there was a bunch of spew printed to the terminal
about Dbpassword being unable to access /var/lib/something/passwords.dat
or so. (Sorry, I didn't save the exact text, so I only remember the
gist.)

Then I tried apt-get dist-upgrade from the terminal. That failed; I
think as soon as I said "Y", it spewed out a bunch of conflicts and told
me to run apt-get install -f. That errored with something about url
being in both texlive-latex-recommended-doc 2013 and texlive-latex-base-
doc 2015. Per directions on the internet, I removed texlive-latex-
recommended-doc, and tried apt-get install -f again. That had some more
errors, but mostly progressed. After running that and dist-upgrade until
things stopped, I rebooted.

Immediately after logging in, I got a bunch of errors like "System
software encountered a bug" or "Installing software was unsuccessful";
choosing to report on one of those sent me here, with a title like
"package libssl1.0.0:amd64 1.0.2g-1ubuntu4.5 failed to install/upgrade:
subprocess installed post-installation script was killed by signal
(Terminated)".

I'm kinda mystified by what happened, and I don't have great records,
but perhaps some of this is helpful for finding some bug... I'm happy to
try to answer questions.

(Oh, and FWIW, I was running xmonad before and seem to have been dumped
in a more standard UI post-upgrade. Conceivably that's related, but I
assume not.)
