Bug Description

Binary package hint: adept

If I click "add/remove programs" from the KDE main menu, I am asked to enter my password and the package manager never starts. When I run adept_installer from the command line, I see "Bus Error" and the program exits. This happens if I run as root, too.

The backtrace looks pretty uninteresting to me:
#0 0x0808a594 in aptFront::exception::OperationCancelled::~OperationCancelled ()
#1 0x0807f6a5 in _init ()
#2 0x082075d7 in tut::test_object<tut::tagcoll_patches_shar>::test<2> ()
#3 0xb694fe51 in __libc_start_main () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6
#4 0x08083611 in ?? ()

Here is the end of an strace:
