    - Search for these files to remove:

     

    sudo ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info | grep -i nzbget

     

    - Removed the package files manually (had to find it using winscp find):

     

    /var/lib/dpkg/info/nzbget-app.list
    /var/lib/dpkg/info/nzbget-app.md5sums
    /var/lib/dpkg/info/nzbget-app.postinst
    /var/lib/dpkg/info/nzbget-app.postrm
    /var/lib/dpkg/info/nzbget-app.preinst
    /var/lib/dpkg/info/nzbget-app.prerm

     

    - Upgraded all the packages which fixed the issue:

    sudo apt-get -f upgrade
