Was there any other error during the unpack or installation in
general? Do you have the full log of that upgrade session? From what
version were you upgrading from?

Do you perhaps have a backup of the status files from just before that
upgrade session? (Either the /var/lib/dpkg/status-old if you have not
done anything else package-wise since then, or perhaps under
/var/backups.)

Otherwise this unfortunately seems a bit non-actionable to me. :/

Thanks,
Guillem
