[Ubuntu Foundations Team Bug Bot (crichton)]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that there was an error on your system when trying to install a particular package. Please execute the following command, as it will clear your package cache, in a terminal:

sudo apt-get clean

Then try performing the update again. This will likely resolve your issue, but the failure could be caused by filesystem or memory corruption. So please also run a fsck on your filesystem(s) and a memory test. If this does resolve your bug please set its status to Invalid. Thanks in advance!

The error message in the log is:

Log started: 2011-07-18 17:17:00
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libpam-modules_1.1.1-2ubuntu5.3_i386.deb (--unpack):
 cannot access archive: No such file or directory

This is not a bug in the pam package. As the preceeding automated comment suggests, please run 'sudo apt-get clean' and attempt the upgrade again.
