I tried deleting the entire cache and starting over but no matter what I do this always seems to end any attempt to upgrade. I tried to use synaptic to reinstall debconf but it was unable to saying "E: debconf: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1"
This is what I got in terminal when I tried to upgrade that way.
