All right, I am completely frustrated. First at my inability to fix the
second memory leak and second by the total lack of developer input on
this issue.

My current working thoery is that commit() function in the Cache class
of the python-apt library runs into an infinite loop if an archive
install returns a result of "Incomplete". My inability to replicate this
error, and lack of familiarity with the python-apt library have thwarted
my attempts to fix the problem.

For now, I am just going to post the third revision of my patch, which
is essentially a regression. The patch no longer alters the types of
Exceptions caught by the programs try/catch statements as this was
mainly an attempt at getting more information. This revision just has
the single memory leak fix.

I am incredibly displeased and disgusted by this entire situation.
