Thanks for reporting this bug.

The upgrade log shows:

 Running newaliases
 newaliases: warning: valid_hostname: invalid character 40(decimal): ruben-laptop.(null)
 newaliases: fatal: file /etc/postfix/main.cf: parameter myhostname: bad parameter value: ruben-laptop.(null)

Please find the line in /etc/postfix/main.cf which reads something like:

 myhostname = ruben-laptop.@

and remove the '.' and everything after that. That should allow newaliases to complete.

If you continue to have trouble, please reply to this message.
