package python2.6 2.6.4~rc1-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: error writing to '<standard output>': Input/output error

Binary package hint: python2.6

I had just run an automatic software update. I don't know if it is related, but I also get an error message to do with power settings that pops up on the login screen.

I'm using the UNR Karmic.
