Bug Description
I have used Software-Cener to install "krdc". On this and a following search for "remnia" Software-Center popup a error dialog for telling that krdc has missing dependences. The detail view of the error popup gives only back a emty list. Apport catched this crasher following.
Steps to reproduce(not retested):
1.Start Software-Center and search for "krdc"
2.Start the installation of "krdc"
3.Immediatelly after starting the installation process search for "remnia".
4.See the error message that dependences for krdc are not resolvable.
5.Open the detail messagebox of the error popup and see that the list of missing packages is emty.
6.See the crasher

I have hit this again.
It is the krdc installation that causes the crash only.
No further doing is needed than this.
