Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: install-package
When an application suggests installing extra packages (e.g. Arora
suggests installing flash plugin), it invokes install-package script,
which dies - dialog window appears that "python 2.6 closed
unexpectedly". Running it in console results in the following call
trace:
a...@etoile:~$ kdesudo "install-package --install libmp3lame0"
Traceback (most recent call last):
