Public bug reported:

In the last day or so, I upgraded Ubuntu from 11.04 to 11.10, then to
12.04. The upgrade to 12.04 was first done using an alternate install
CD, then further updates were made from the Internet. A partial upgrade
was made after rebooting. This error showed up more than one time before
I reported it. The computer is a gBox P4 model around 8-10 years old.

After installing apt-show-versions, I was able to determine this:

$ apt-show-versions libxml-sax-expat-perl
libxml-sax-expat-perl/precise uptodate 0.40-2

So the error is a bit of a mystery to me.
