in my case the software center threw a crash report everytime I installed a package downloaded from the net (google chrome, Oracle- Virtualbox) and for some of some of Ubuntu maintained packages, but in spite of the crash reports the installations completed successfully and the apps work. This time it has crashed for good while installing Audacity from the main repository. Got stuck half way through and had to force quit.
