frontend crashed with SIGSEGV in abort() - adept-manager update related?

[John Stevens]

Updating with adept-manager Full Upgrade resulted in a broken dependency warning. Attempting the upgrade a second time caused front-end to crash with a SIGSEGV in, apparently, the abort() function. Updating with:
    apt-get update
    apt-get upgrade
    apt-get dist-upgrade
completed successfully.

Thanks for this report. However, this Apport core dump is corrupted (it is not due to your fault) and it's not possible to fix it. Are you able to reproduce this crash in a full updated Gutsy?

It looks like a duplicate of 129604. For this moment, I'll mark as duplicate of it. If you are able to reproduce please add information to bug 129604. Thanks.

I apologize for the delay in replying. Unfortunately, due to upgrades and the start of classes next week, I have not been able to reproduce this error and will most likely not have time to reinstall and test Gutsy until well after it's production release :(
