package grub-pc 2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.15 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 10

[Alaa]

The PC has issues installing grub2. I was installing bioperl and biomart on the system and was following the installation steps. Looks like while I was installing, it broke something in the system and everytime I try to upgrade the packages, I get the grub2 installation issue as it cannot install:
