Since it looks like more people are getting it, I'll explain exactly how it happened to me. I went through my /etc/atp/sources.list file and did a search and replace for breezy to dapper. I then did sudo apt-get update, and sudo apt-get upgrade. The particular guide I was using said that I should apt-get upgrade and then apt-get dist-upgrade. Well, in the middle of the upgrade, my computer completely crashed, so I restarted it, and it couldn't get to the login screen. So I went into recovery mode and I tried to finish apt-get upgrade. It tells me that dpkg is stuck so I have to run it. I do, and it tries to install pcmcia-cs at which point my computer completely crashes. I am on a desktop computer without pcmcia, and my network card is a realtek rtl8139, like everyone else.
