apt_check.py crashed with SIGSEGV in strlen()

[Pascal Reiß]

Binary package hint: update-notifier

After updating my system (Jaunty 32-bit), I was asked to reboot it. I clicked "No" and then uninstalled Kernel Version 2.6.29 via Synaptics (I wanted to do this some days ago...). Just to make sure, I ran "sudo update-grub". In this moment, I got the notification that apt_check.py crashed.
