Title:
  apt_check.py crashed with SIGSEGV in pkgCache::FindPkg()

Status in “update-notifier” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-notifier

  Maybe this crash is because I have Synaptic open when the automatic
  update try to run. I see a red icon on the notification area
  indicating that Update Notifier has a problem trying to find updates.
