I have that same crash log on my other machine. I believe it was related to the week of the Herd 5 release and the Debconf being messed up. I am sure this report came from when I tried to install sun-java5-bin and debconf would crash at the point where it was supposed to bring up the license to agree to.
I am not seeing this error anymore so I do believe it has been fixed since the Herd 5 release. Michael, can you think of another reason for this besides debconf? -- debconf crashing during update https://launchpad.net/bugs/91296 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
