waits for apt-get to exit. Never downloads

[Jonathan Thigpen]

Binary package hint: software-center

I am using the latest version of Ubuntu.
Also, the latest version of Software center.
I expeced it to download. It didn't. Instead, I got the following message:

An unhandlable error occured

There seems to be a programming error in aptdaemon, the software that allows you to install/remove software and to perform other package management related tasks. Please report this error at http://launchpad.net/aptdaemon/+filebug and retry.
