[Bug 1385689] Re: ubuntu-bug, software-center and update-manager crashing

 

This also happens in 15.04; I just posted a comment to that effect in
#1429235.

Is there a workaround? I cannot currently upgrade to 15.10

Title:
  ubuntu-bug, software-center and update-manager crashing

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Just yesterday I updated from 14.04 to 14.10 and noticed, that the update-manager shows a Stop-sign in the notification bar.
  Tried to open it via the launcher, no success.

  Then I tried starting the update-manager via console:

  dsfsfs@linux:/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages$ update-manager 
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/bin/update-manager", line 38, in <module>
      from UpdateManager.UpdateManager import UpdateManager
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/UpdateManager/UpdateManager.py", line 36, in <module>
      import apt_pkg
  ImportError: /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt_pkg.cpython-34m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: _ZN13pkgSrcRecords4StepEv
  dsfsfs@linux:/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages$

  
  Tried the same with software-center:

  dsfsfs@linux:/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages$ software-center
  ERROR:root:DebFileApplication import
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/db/__init__.py", line 4, in <module>
      from debfile import DebFileApplication, DebFileOpenError
    File "/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/db/debfile.py", line 21, in <module>
      from apt.debfile import DebPackage
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/apt/__init__.py", line 23, in <module>
      import apt_pkg
  ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/apt_pkg.so: undefined symbol: _ZN13pkgSrcRecords4StepEv
  Speicherzugriffsfehler
  dsfsfs@linux:/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages$

  And, last but not least, after reading the FAQs on how to file in a
  bug, I tried to run ubuntu-bug, which gave me this:

  dsfsfs@linux:/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages$ ubuntu-bug
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/share/apport/apport-gtk", line 24, in <module>

      import apport.fileutils
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/fileutils.py", line 23, in <module>

    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/packaging_impl.py", line 20, in <module>
      import apt
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt/__init__.py", line 23, in <module>
      import apt_pkg
  ImportError: /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt_pkg.cpython-34m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: _ZN13pkgSrcRecords4StepEv
  dsfsfs@linux:/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages$

  Please help.
  Thanks in advance
