Como redefinir o gerenciador de atualização

Question

Como posso corrigir o Update Manager no 12.04, que trava quando tento instalar qualquer atualização, enquanto o sudo apt-get upgrade funciona bem? Eu suspeito strongmente que tem algo a ver com a minha instalação de python, ao invés de um bug no software. Esta é a mensagem de erro:

A reinstalação do aptdaemon parece ter resolvido o problema:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall aptdaemon
