dependency problems prevent configuration of libnih-dbus1:
 libnih-dbus1 depends on libnih1 (= 1.0.3-4ubuntu9); however:
  Version of libnih1 on system is 1.0.3-4ubuntu2.
 libnih-dbus1 depends on libc6 (>= 2.3.4); however:
  Package libc6 is not installed.
dpkg: error processing libnih-dbus1 (--configure):

Errors were encountered while processing:

This happened to me, hence finding this post. I had started an upgrade then my pc had been turned off.

Fixed it with 

apt-get -f install

Seemed that libc6 wanted to ask if it was OK to stop services to continue - I was upgrading headless using screen. The upgrade didn't get an answer to that question thus libc6 wasn't installed.

Carrying on the do-release-upgrade now.
