Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager-gnome

1) roodis@rootnis:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu Natty (development branch)
Release: 11.04
2) roodis@rootnis:~$ apt-cache policy network-manager-gnome
network-manager-gnome:
  Installed: 0.8.4~git.20110228t141430.abba62f-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.8.4~git.20110228t141430.abba62f-0ubuntu1
  Version table:
*** 0.8.4~git.20110228t141430.abba62f-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://lv.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main amd64 Packages

3) nothing particular
4) it happened for me already about 4 times, but those other times I was in middle of update (with synaptic) so some packages were still old and apport wouldn't let me further.
It doesn't happen every time, just once in a few days

OFF-TOPIC
It is confusing that launchpad/apport (?) suggests to submit bug report about package "network-manager-applet", but such package doesn't exist and at least 2) point is not as straight forward as it could be.
