Reproduced again in Oneiric (20110924). The specific DBusException in this case, however, happens to be "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied" and the only way I can run the Software Center is as root (using sudo in a terminal)...

Same here on Precise - aptd crashed just after completing an upgrade and does so after each boot-up.

I ran into this on Saucy after running aptd -d after experiencing bug 1202754. My org.debian.apt.conf file is the same as in comment #7.
