Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The relevant dpkg terminal log says:

E: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/btrfs failed with return 1.

Sadly there is no error message explaining the exit code 1. Can you edit /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/btrfs and add "set -x" (without the quotes) to the script and then run update-initramfs to get more log output?

sudo nano /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/btrfs
sudo update-initramfs -u

Please attach the output to the bug report then.
