Now 2 crashes like this one, when i use sudo aptitude update. I do not really know if i get noticed when i have updates, because right now i did a sudo aptitude update, and was lot of updates, but update-kde-notifier did not notify with an icon. may be i have to make updates manually for now. When i was typing this same crash with sudo aptitude safe-upgrade. It is really disturbing, may be i can help with this. The problem i think was started when i killed the process python for update-notifier-kde, and then i started again. This was made because python had for this process a lot of MB, i think not needed at all, well i have again a 81 MB process for that, and, because of this trouble i think i would never will kill again this process, like i do when like plasma it uses lots of MB, but in this case i notice may way of kill and start works. But with update-kde-notifier it was a mess. Thanks.
