Binary package hint: update-manager

I've noticed a few times on my Lucid machine that pressing the "Install" button in update-manager doesn't seem to do anything. This happened to me again today in KVM, and I was able to get this traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/UpdateManager/UpdateManager.py", line 586, in on_button_install_clicked
    self.cache.checkFreeSpace()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeCache.py", line 1104, in checkFreeSpace
    for (dir, size) in [(archivedir, self.requiredDownload),
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/UpdateManager/Core/MyCache.py", line 88, in requiredDownload
    pm.GetArchives(fetcher, self._list, self._records)
SystemError: E:I wasn't able to locate file for the gzip package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.
