Thanks for taking the time to submit this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

The dpkgterminallog shows

debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Passthrough
debconf: (Cannot connect to /tmp/aptdaemon-K7hR2W/debconf.socket: Connection refused at (eval 24) line 3)
debconf: falling back to frontend: Noninteractive

I suspect this is unrelated to libcap itself. Do you update your system using Synaptic, or Software Center, or something else?

Changed in libcap2 (Ubuntu):
status:	New → Incomplete
