E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I encountered this on an attempt to install the package when it was previously uninstalled.

Then I went to a different machine where it was previously installed successfully and ran dpkg-reconfigure on it. I was prompted to accept the license agreement, but then it, too, failed with the same error.

Both of these machines were upgraded from 17.10 (artful) to 18.04 (bionic) today.
