apt-get install segfaults

[elcuco]

Package: apt
Version: 0.6.40.1ubuntu9
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

look at the apt-config dump, it says it all. apt-get seems to segfault randomly and 
thus completelly breaking the system. re booting does not help, changing kernel did not 
(last time i checked, but now i only have only one, so I cannot really install a second).

i hope the problem will be over soon, last time it happened it was fixed by sitting on my
ass and waiting (did nothing, and randomly it started working again)
