Bug Description

I don't have anything - I'm just trying to install Ubuntu Mate Alpha version of 16.04 and got errors - it tried to do a partial upgrade of something and this happened and I'm stuck with an unuseable system. It says dpkg: error processing package qemu (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
qemu-kvm depends on qemu-system-x86 (- 1:2.5dfsg-lubuntu4); however: Package qemu-system-x86 is not configured yet and threw me out of update and I'm going to power down and reinstall again without using software suggestions in the welcome menu. That was when I started getting wierd errors. Installation was difficult and only allowed me to install with UEFI by partitioning myself and would not create a swap file until I tried 3 times to have it install fresh without manual partitioning so I guess this really a buggy version!
