@julian, thanks for the quick reply. Will do.

** Changed in: python-apt (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Fix Released

** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  USN-4668-1 introduced a regression in python-apt when using certain APIs
  with a file handle.
  
  [Test case]
  
  # Landscape scenario:
  1) On the Landscape server, create a package profile that installs a single package, 'hello' is enough.
  2) On the Landscape server, apply the package profile to a client
  3) On the Landscape client, verify that there is no segfault message on '/var/log/kern.log'
  4) On the Landscape server, verify that the activity to apply the package profile ends with success.
  
  Step 3) would show a segfault and step 4), the activity would stay 'In
  Progress' forever.
