The error in the logs is:

Setting up portmap (6.0.0-1ubuntu1) ...
portmap start/running, process 22762
There are RPC services which were registered with the portmapper
before the configuration was changed.
You need to manually restart them in order for the changes to take effect.
Current registered services:
------------------------------------------------
dpkg: error processing portmap (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

So the first call to rpcinfo in the postinst apparently returned something of interest, and the second call failed.

Could you run the following command and paste the output?:

$ rpcinfo -p 2>/dev/null | grep "tcp\|udp" | grep -v portmapper
