Thanks,

when you installed some xine you got a error (segfault). What command did you ran after that (in the installation run from "Log started: 2009-01-31 05:15:08")? Was it update-manager or synaptic or apt-get directly? Or something else? I'm trying to reproduce the problem right now and this information would be helpful :)

It looks like the culprit are this lines:

Package: libxine1-bin
Status: install ok triggers-awaited
Triggers-Awaited: gxine

With those "apt-get install -f" is not able to handle the situation.

I ran "sudo dpkg --configure -a" and then update-manager again

Here is my /var/lib/dpkg/status file:

Package: python-bittorrent
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional
Section: net
Installed-Size: 336
Maintainer: Ubuntu Core developers <email address hidden>
Architecture: all
Source: bittorrent
Version: 3.4.2-11.1ubuntu2
Replaces: bittorrent (<< 3.4.2-10ubuntu2)
Provides: python2.4-bittorrent, python2.5-bittorrent
Depends: python (>= 2.3), python-central (>= 0.6.7)
Description: Scatter-gather network file transfer
 BitTorrent is a tool for distributing files. It's extremely
 easy to use - downloads are started by clicking on hyperlinks.
 Whenever more than one person is downloading at once
 they send pieces of the file(s) to each other, thus relieving
 the central server's bandwidth burden. Even with many
 simultaneous downloads, the upload burden on the central server
 remains quite small, since each new downloader introduces new
 upload capacity.
 .
 This package contains the python modules.

Section: x11
Installed-Size: 124
Maintainer: Ubuntu Core Developers <email address hidden>
Architecture: i386
Version: 1:12.5.1-1ubuntu5.1
Replaces: xserver-xorg (<< 6.8.2-35)
Provides: xserver-xorg-input-2.1
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4), xserver-xorg-core (>= 2:1.5.1-1ubuntu3)
Description: X.Org X server -- VMMouse input driver to use with VMWare
 This package provides the driver for the X11 vmmouse input device.
 .
 The VMMouse driver enables support for the special VMMouse protocol
 that is provided by VMware virtual machines to give absolute pointer
 positioning.
 .
 The vmmouse driver is capable of falling back to the standard "mouse"
 driver if a VMware virtual machine is not detected. This allows for
 dual-booting of an operating system from a virtual machine to real hardware
 without having to edit xorg.conf every time.
 .
 More information about X.Org can be found at:
 <URL:http://www.X.org>
 <URL:http://xorg.freedesktop.org>
 <URL:http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg>
 .
 This package is built from the X.org xf86-input-vmmouse driver module.
