As a work-around, edit line 21 of /var/lib/dpkg/info/ubuntu-docs.postinst and put the version number at the end in quotes. That is, change
&& dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt-nl <9.04.6>
to
&& dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt-nl "<9.04.6>"
After you're done, re-do "apt-get install ubuntu-docs". This will allow the package to install cleanly.
