This morning, I encountered the exact same error and consequences as posted above while trying to install the Sun Java runtime and plugin. I'm using the 9.10 beta, i386 version. I just noticed that I accidentally have Firefox 3.0 installed as well as 3.5. I'm not sure if that could have affected it. The unfortunate thing was that I had about 20 programs queued up for installation in the Software Center and now they are all gone. It would be nice if this program had remembered the list in event of crashes, and just continued installing when you started it up next time.
