Bug Description

Various members have tried to help. Basically when I try to either remove software using synaptic or Ubuntu software center I get error messages and the process fails to complete. I try to do updates and that also fails. I tried to remove Virtualbox and received error messages. Examples of error and output message below.

Error message:
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-3.0.0-14-generic-pae_3.0.0-14.23_i386.deb: subprocess new post-removal script returned error exit status 1
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-3.0.0-15-generic-pae_3.0.0-15.26_i386.deb: subprocess new post-removal script returned error exit status 1
