Bug Description
This happens every time I try to udate using the software updater, I've tried to clean it using apt-get cle3an and automremove, but it does'nt work.
I now generally untick it under the software updater so that the rest of the updates can work without a problem

Thanks for your report.
This kind of issue happens from time to time, and personally I find it frustrating since I have no idea how to fix it.
I wonder.. Did you possibly check out that symlink? Do you see anything odd with it?
What happens if you delete the link and then try to install ubuntu-docs?
And if that doesn't help, can you please try remove the package and then install it again?
