Ouch.  Which Ubuntu version do you have?

Which command exactly is segfaulting: sudo, aptitude update or aptitude
safe-upgrade?  You can find out by running them sequentially:

  $ sudo -s
  # aptitude update
  # aptitude upgrade

**********Terminal gave these replies:

W: The "upgrade" command is deprecated; use "safe-upgrade" instead.
