Thanks for your report.
I reproduce it in Natty with the latest update. The error is:
Setting up apport (1.17.1-0ubuntu3) ...
start: Job is already running: apport
invoke-rc.d: initscript apport, action "start" failed.
dpkg: error processing apport (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
