Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: aptdaemon
This is in up-to-date Maverick. To reproduce this problem, run "apt-get
install <something>" (where <something> in my case was texlive-full, a
rather long install), and open update-manager. It will first say that
"Not all updates can be installed", followed by an error saying that the
package indices are broken. aptdaemon seems not to be looking for
running instances of apt to detect these problems correctly.
This didn't happen when update-manager used the apt backend in previous
releases (apt does look for apt instances).
By the design of aptdaemon, I assume it wouldn't be a problem if another
aptdaemon-based application was running when update-manager is launched?
