Bug Description
System began experiencing errors starting at around 10:20 AM Pacific time on August 12, 2015. It started with Firefox crashing over and over again. Then the OS (Ubuntu) started crashing. I tried shutting down completely and restarting. I also tried applying system updates. Neither fixed the issue and the updates wouldn't install.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that there was an error on your system when trying to install a particular package. Please execute the following command, as it will clear your package cache, in a terminal:
sudo apt-get clean
Then try performing the update again. This will likely resolve your issue, but the failure could be caused by filesystem or memory corruption. So please also run a fsck on your filesystem(s) and a memory test. Thanks in advance!
