Bug description:
Was updating via update manager, after new installation when this error
occured.

Binary package hint: system-tools-backends

on an elitegroup AM2+ motherboard with AMD Athlon 64 X2 BE-2400 processor, 4gb
of ram

ProblemType: Package
Architecture: amd64
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 8.10
ErrorMessage: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia
Package: system-tools-backends 2.6.0-1ubuntu1.1
SourcePackage: system-tools-backends
Title: package system-tools-backends 2.6.0-1ubuntu1.1 failed to
install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status
1
Uname: Linux 2.6.27-7-generic x86_64

***TEMPORARY WORKAROUND***
After the upgrade has failed, you will get an error every time you run dpkg or
apt-get saying that system-tools-backends is not configured. "sudo dpkg
--configure -a" will not fix this. To recover, please perform the following
2 steps:

1) sudo invoke-rc.d system-tools-backends stop
2) sudo dpkg --configure -a

***TEST CASE FOR SRU***
1) With current version (2.6.0-1ubuntu1.1) of system-tools-backends installed,
open up 2 terminals.
2) In the first terminal, type "users-admin", but don't press
enter to run it yet.
3) In the second terminal, run "sudo apt-get install --reinstall
system-tools-backends".
4) As soon as this line appears in the second terminal, hit enter in the first
terminal to run users-admin: "* Stopping System Tools Backends
system-tools-backends"

The reinstall will fail. Once this has happened follow the workaround above to
recover, then upgrade to 2.6.0-1ubuntu1.2.

Once upgraded, repeat steps 1 - 4, and note that the reinstall never fails.
