Bug Description

Binary package hint: dpkg

This package failed on upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10
Unfortunately I cannot (or do not know how) to view the reports before I send them but I noted that my previous bug report #658043 when published on this site appeared to be caused by Google Chrome. I am a relatively new user of Linux and Ubuntu but it appears that my link to google's PPA may be causing these problems
