Here's the process I followed. First I checked for the builds to complete for apt and dpkg. I found that upgrading dpkg alone allowed update-manager to run successfully:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/1.14.5ubuntu14 If it has been built successfully follow the link for the appropriate architecture (in my case amd64). In the left sidebar (the "Resulting binaries" portlet) follow the link to each available binary package in turn. For each binary package, download the .deb listed under "File download" You can also use a terminal and wget to do this, e.g. (for amd64) copy the link to the deb file and paste it as an argument to wget: $ wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9354821/dpkg_1.14.5ubuntu14_amd64.deb $ wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9354822/dselect_1.14.5ubuntu14_amd64.deb Once downloaded, install: $ sudo dpkg -i dselect_1.14.5ubuntu14_amd64.deb $ dpkg -i dpkg_1.14.5ubuntu14_amd64.deb -- Apt segfaults on gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/140739 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
