UbuntuOne Client doesn't sync; failed to install/upgrade

[Cesare Mastroianni]

Thanks for Your hints sent on April 9th. I upgraded my two systems (both Ubuntu 9.10) using Your instructions. However, one system run smooth. The other one today had a problem: the client crashed. See attached log: I hope these files could help to find the problem.

Thanks for Your help. Now it seems it works.

I don't know if I should or should not change the bug status to "Fixed" ...

Thanks again.
