Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

I've been running Gutsy for a few weeks now, and updating whenever
updates are available.  One of the updates in the past few days killed
update-manager.  Apt-get and synaptic work fine, but update-manager does
not.

Update-notifier works fine, but when I click on the icon nothing happens; it 
crashes silently.  Running update-manager from the command line yields this 
error:
 sudo update-manager
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/update-manager", line 32, in <module>
    from UpdateManager.UpdateManager import UpdateManager
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/UpdateManager/UpdateManager.py", line 
56, in <module>
    import xml.sax.saxutils
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/xml/__init__.py", line 1
SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\xbd' in file 
/usr/lib/python2.5/xml/__init__.py on line 1, but no encoding declared; see 
http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html for details
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ 

I'm not sure if the underlying problem is with some XML Python library
or update-manager itself.
