Just wanted to add that this occurred to me when when logging in after a reboot triggered by an update.

Same as John B.; this crash was reported after I restarted and logged in following an update.

Seen this couple of times after authorizing software update in Update Manager

This bug was fixed in the package aptdaemon - 0.10+bzr242-0ubuntu1

---------------
aptdaemon (0.10+bzr242-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * aptdaemon/core.py:
    - do not fail on a not running syslog daemon (LP: #428843)
  * Include dpkg errors in the error output
  * debian/rules:
    - move to simple-patchsys (for now) to make maintaining the
      patches simpler
  * debian/patches/disallow-unauthenticated-branch.diff:
    Patch generated from lp:~mvo/aptdaemon/allow-unauthenticated
    to support controlling if unauthenticated packages are allowed
    during a transaction. Default to "not allow unauthenticated"
    (LP: #435313)
  * debian/patches/mvo-branch.patch:
    Patch generated from lp:~mvo/aptdaemon/mvo that fixes:
    - aptdaemon/worker.py: check the apt download dir lock
      in _watch_lock to avoid possible race with apt-get LP: #437709
    - aptdaemon/progress.py: fix crash in error handling (LP: #436808)
    - aptdaemon/progress.py: fix crash in INSTALL_TIMEOUT handling
      (LP: #430860)
    - aptdaemon/gtkwidgets.py: make the dialog resizable and add bigger
      default size (LP: #434937)
    - aptdaemon/core.py: add _remove_from_connection_no_raise() that
      will discard errors if the object is not exported (LP: #422585)
