I'm also seeing this, when attempting to provision a vagrant box with
16.04. I have, in my Vagrantfile:

```
config.vm.box_url = 
'https://app.vagrantup.com/bento/boxes/ubuntu-16.04/versions/2.3.1/providers/virtualbox.box'
```

And I see the error during `vagrant up --provision`:

```
...

/var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-4.4.0-143-generic.postinst: 50:
