I have the same problem. Tested on fresh 16.04 KVM VM and LXC (originally though it might have been a LXC problem)

I encounter the same error on multiple VM and bare metal Ubuntu 16.04 servers. So far, unable to install on any of my Ubuntu servers.
Noticed broken symlinks in the FlowBAT/packages directory all are pointing to
a sub-directory of /home/jason/.meteorite/packages:

Were these intended to be included in the repository as files rather than symlinks?

[automayt]

These elifecycle errors should be fixed with the new installer.
