Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

The relevant error is
==
Processing triggers for gxine ...
Segmentation fault
dpkg: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 139

affecting to gxine.
You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.
