Thanks for your report

The cause of the failure was
====
Setting up ca-certificates (20080514-0ubuntu1) ...
*** stack smashing detected ***: /usr/bin/perl terminated
dpkg: error processing ca-certificates (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script killed by signal (Segmentation fault)

This has already been reported in bug 283942 which has been fixed in update-manager (1:0.93.26)
