Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

Update-manager fails to download (and install) softwares from the ubuntu
security repository (and maybe others).  Third party repos (beryl,...)
work correctly.

I launched update-manager from the terminal to get the errors:

$ sudo update-manager 
warning: could not initiate dbus
could not send the dbus Inhibit signal: Did not receive a reply. Possible 
causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus 
security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network 
connection was broken.

This happens when I click on the "Install Updates" button

apt-get dist-upgrade works correctly (hopefully)

Maybe it is worth noting this is for Edgy and I've got beryl-svn
installed (but not running)
