After running a routine apt-get upgrade, I am getting this error:

Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Any ideas on how to fix this? I did not install any new packages, this just started to show up.
System: Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS, with Linux Mint cinnamon interface.
