i have software-center 5.3.3.1 and apt-xapian-index 0.44ubuntu5 (ie: quantal system made up to date just now) and just got this error again after login after reboot. Got dialogue saying it was already reported and it opened browser window to here; got here and it says it's fixed in releases I have so thought it might be worth mentioning it still happened to me :-)
