Hi again, freelancer. Hm, ok, it looks like the forced rebuild may not
have replaced the problematic file. Could you please add the following
file to this bug as an attachment?:

  /var/lib/apt-xapian-index/values

And then, please shut down Software Center and  try the following two
commands in a terminal. The first command will actually delete the
problematic file, and the second will rebuild it (hopefully without
error this time). As before, the second command takes a minute or so to
complete:

  $ sudo rm /var/lib/apt-xapian-index/values
  $ sudo update-apt-xapian-index -f

Once the rebuild has completed, please try running Software Center one
more time. With any luck, it will now be fixed.

Thank you again!
Gary
