@ Timo:
Why do you think this is related?

FWIW:
I can confirm this bug, too.
Encountered it yesterday while doing an upgrade from 7.04 to gutsy-rc.

I get the exact same error as the original poster, beginning with:

dpkg-query: Fehler beim Parsen, in Datei »/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0013« nahe Zeile 2 Paket »libc6«:
 »triggers-pendi« ist nicht erlaubt für drittes (Status-)Wort im Feld »status«

and unfortunately, by now /var/lib/dpkg/updates is empty, too.

There were a lot of packages that didn't resolve afterwards, so I consider this bug somewhat
critical to upgrading.
Anyway, I will try the suggestions above.
