Hi Chris,
thanks for your bug-report, but i think, it is not the same bug.
The update of dpkg failed. I don't know the reason (IOError? maybe a harddisk problem?)

Now you still have the old dpkg which has no clue how to handle triggers. First thing you have to do is to update your dpkg-package.
This will fail because of the trigger in `/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0006'.
To get it working again, you can try to remove the line
> Triggers-Pending: ldconfig
and replace the line
> Status: install ok triggers-pending
by
> Status: install ok installed
now you can run
> dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/dpkg_1.14.5ubuntu16_i386.deb
> apt-get --reinstall install libc6
> dpkg --configure -a
> apt-get dist-upgrade
