Title:
  update-manager / aptdaemon TransactionFailed crashes are not problems
  with update-manager

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On errors.ubuntu.com there are multiple crashes reported about update-
  manager that end in a Traceback like the following:

  aptdaemon.errors.TransactionFailed: Transaction failed: The package system is broken
   The following packages have unmet dependencies:

  rhythmbox-plugin-magnatune: Depends: rhythmbox (= 3.0.2-0ubuntu2) but
  3.0.2-0ubuntu1 is installed

  Naturally, the package name varies. I don't believe these are actually
  crashes about update-manager or aptdaemon. Rather there is something
  wrong with the users package system. Subsequently, it'd be better if
  these were not reported to the error tracker and clogging up the bug
  lists.
