Subject: update-manager dies with a segmentation fault.
Package: update-manager
Version: 0.42.2ubuntu22-4
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
*** Please type your report below this line ***
After starting update-manager, it shows a dialog with title 'Examining
your
system' and with a progress bar, and then it dies with a seg-fault.
It emits some text in the console:
# update-manager

This is on a powerpc system. I also use a x86 system and I have no
problem with update-manager in that arch.

Version: 0.7.8
This seems to be solved on recent versions of python-apt. I'm
tagging the most recent version known to work.
As said by the person who commented on this bug, this bug seems
to disappear by simple recompiling.
Therefore, and given that it works for me using newest versions,
I do not think that new versions are affected anymore.
