I tried to install VirtualBox version 3.2.10-66523~Ubuntu~maverick (virtualbox-3.2) for Ubuntu 10.10 (32 bit version) and i got the following error message:
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.

I run 32 bit Ubuntu 10.10 netbook edition inside of VMWare Player. i got the installer for Virtual Box at:
http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
and chose Ubuntu 10.10 ("Maverick Meerkat") I386. my computer is a Emachines model T5247a and i have an Intel Pentium 4 dual-core E2180 2.00 GHz processor. the host operating system is Windows Vista Home Premium service pack 2 32 bit. this is my first time with Linux and I don't know what else to say but the very first thing i did was download virtual box with Firefox and install it so I don't think I did anything to screw stuff up.
