Public bug reported: Binary package hint: update-manager
dpkg seg fault updating updater This may be a duplicate. Unfortunately I did not keep a copy of the terminal window output, and do not know in which log to look ("/var/log/apt/term.log" contains no mention of today; "/var/log/dist- upgrade/apt-term.log" is a little better - see below. There had been reports mentioning "clamav" and "libc6" at around the same time. This was the report in "/var/log/mesages": May 31 09:53:35 gnumatic kernel: [2851830.826698] dpkg[6157]: segfault at 00080014 eip 08052900 esp bf872df8 error 6 Log started: 2009-05-31 09:53:12 (Reading database ... 233245 files and directories currently installed.)
