This crash has the same stack trace characteristics as bug #341334. However, the latter was already fixed in an earlier package version than the one in this report. This might be a regression or because the problem is in a dependent package.

Occurs whenever apt encounters a broken packages situation. install-package needs an Exception for this error that notifies the user of the problem.

This bug was fixed in the package install-package - 0.5

---------------
install-package (0.5) lucid; urgency=low

  * Catch SystemErrors in the markInstall function, rather than letting them
    crash install-package (LP: #435675)
  * Catch instances where another process takes the packaging lock after we
    did our initial check (LP: #441042)
  * Catch exceptions caused by malformed sources.list files and show the user
    instead of crashing (LP: #496305)
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.4
  * Add dependency on ${misc:Depends} to satisfy a lintian error
