Title:
  [oneiric] Update Manager crashes when trying to install updates

Status in “aptdaemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I believe this crasher bug started this week. I can use Update Manager
  to view changelogs and available packages but clicking to update or
  install updates freezes the interface and I get this console error:

  $ update-manager
