Bug Description
Binary package hint: kdelibs
unfortunately i cannot remember the exact software package as i was installing several applications simultaneously. all i can remember is that it was some sort of accountancy/money management software. i am using ubuntu 8.10 intrepid ibex. i expected the packages to be downloaded and installed normally but instead towards the end one application failed to install and the system reported a crash report instead, the the 'add/remove' window would not close when i attemptempted a retry although vlc media player was still working fine, so the system did not crash entirely
upon restarting my system i now cannot use add/remove programs or update manager as they both report the same error since this bug occured; that being
