Bug Description
I want to upgrade to the current developing state of Saucy Salamander. During the state "calculation changes" the update-manager crashes. Also does the same if I run do-release-upgrade from console.

Setting LANG=en_US.UTF-8 and LANGUAGE=en_US:en helps (normally on the system this is LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 and LANGUAGE= de_DE:de: en ) helps and leads to displaying the error message with dependencyproblems. So it seems to be regarded to the german translation.
