Just got another one of these. There seem to be two problems here, one
of them being gnome-app-install crashing when some background command
malfunctions as happened here. GAI tried to install some gstreamer
codec:

gstreamer-codec-install --transient-for=79691807 'gstreamer|0.10
|rhythmbox-metadata|application/x-tar decoder|decoder-application/x-tar'

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/gstreamer-codec-install", line 30, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/AppInstall/activation.py", line 470, 
in main
    style = CodecSearchActivationStyle(options, args)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/AppInstall/activation.py", line 149, 
in __init__
    SearchActivationStyle.__init__(self, 'codec', options)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/AppInstall/activation.py", line 107, 
in __init__
    self._db = gdbm.open(db_name, 'rfu')
gdbm.error: (2, 'No such file or directory')

OK, that went wrong. These things happen, but GAI should not crash...

Now to find the root cause of the gstreamer bug...
