I've first received that during upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10, and receiving it right now every time I run apt-get install.
Also, "Report problem" process often crashes, so I'm not sure if any of the reports reached Ubuntu bug collector service.
It may or may not be connected to my other issue with 12.10 -- sudden unity logout without warning and with no pattern.
