</code>

Notice, that this is an issue with the official Raspbian Repository. However, the following fix takes care of it:
<code>
sudo sed -i '/_hashlib.so/d' /var/lib/dpkg/info/python2.7.list
sudo sed -i '/_ssl.so/d' /var/lib/dpkg/info/python2.7.list
</code>

Now continue your upgrade as did before.
