Title:
  Message "daemon died" appeared while running update-manager [11.04]

Status in “aptdaemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  [ NOTE: This now affects Natty 11.04 Beta-1 as of 2010-12-21 ]

  While trying to update this system a few minutes ago, Update Manager
  showed a list of updates, and then shortly after I clicked on the
  button for starting the downloads, the program froze after displaying
  a message saying that the "deamon died".
