Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: python2.4-minimal

System is a MacBook with intel core 2 duo. I have installed a daily of
feisty with success and the system is up to date.

python2.4-minimal always fails to configure.
I have tried removing it, and apt-get automatically removed also 
ubuntu-desktop, totem and other packages. Right now it is unable to configure 
them also :(
I fear to reboot the system. 

I am also experiencing a number of crashes: update-manager and ad/remove
applications does not start at all

this is what happens:
