I was able to get fglrx-updates running with the following work around:

From init Terminal Mode ( cntl + alt F1) ran sudo apt-get install fglrx-updates, then
note the suggested deb pkg's listed as suggested and installed them FIRST, before proceeding with the amd driver installation.

I installed them fisrt, along with all their dependencies which were listed, one of which was FAKE ROOT, which may not be installed through the gui installer possibly part of the problem ???.

After those were all installed (debhelper etc and depends) then I installed fglrx-updates and it's depends and the installation completed without error and have the correct divers installed and working correctly now.

I am on kernel 3.13.0-11 on an intel sandy bridge i7 2600-k with amd ati asus 6570 gpu.

Sorry apport was crashing on me also this morning cannot provide log , however, what what I could see it was basically the same description and problem as already posted. Hopefully this will help someone else until a fix is released. This worked for me. Good Luck !
