The "Dmesg.txt" log shows that the error occurred because your hard drive seems to be faulty:
[ 111.908844] ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x0

[ 111.908894] ata1.00: status: { DRDY ERR }
[ 111.908900] ata1.00: error: { ABRT }

For this reason, the kernel is unable to read some data from the drive and returns an error to the "ldconfig" program (called while installing packages), which in turn segfaults.

Please make a backup immediately, then test your hard drive according to your manufacturer's instructions - since your drive seems to be a Seagate one, use a SeaTools boot floppy or CD (http://www.seagate.com/support/downloads/seatools/) and execute a long test. If any bad clusters are found, you should consider replacing the drive. Make also sure that all the cables connecting your hard drive to the motherboard are firmly in place.

Do tell me the results of the test, so I can determine if the issue was caused by your hard disk.

[Expired for eglibc (Ubuntu) because there has been no activity for 60 days.]

40 to 50 new packages each week for updating, I am not a package expert, webcast does nt work, downloadhelper does nt work, VLC cannot show newly downloaded videos, enough MB on harddisc. CPN fromm daami cannot be installed.
One update session has been stopped. Tried synaptic to fix this, no synaptic expert around here.
This is not expired, it is just 1% of the problem .
There is no seagate drive. Today is Aug 5 2013 .
How can resolve this without de-installing everything ?

kind regards
