zisik.

Thanks for reporting this bug. This is actually an error update-manager rather than adept. Reassigning package. Also this bug has now been duplicated as bug 108560 so status is set to confirmed.

thanks
Richard

assigning package back to adept. My mistake sorry

The crash actually is in update-manager-kde, which lives in the update-manager source package.

[Henrik Vinther (henrik-vinther)]

This is still a problem when trying to upgrade from Hardy to Intrepid, meaning that a lot of non English speaking people can't do the upgrade!
However it can be worked around by setting system language to English.

Cleaning up. Is this still an issue in the current stable release?
