Bug Description

$uname -a
$m 2.6.22-9-generic #1 SMP Fri Aug 3 00:50:37 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux

Installing updates crashed.

The update notifier icon is showing on my panel, but clicking on it gives error "software index is broken, use apt-get install -f"
apt-get install -f gives following error

dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/update-notifier-common_0.59.3_all.deb (--unpack):
