Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: lirc
This is a clean install of Ubuntu Intrepid on an Acer Aspire One
machine. The only thing I've installed myself, other than the standard
package updates suggested by synaptic since install, is "linux-
backports-modules-intrepid". This update was suggested by Synaptic, so
I'm assuming this must be widely used and installed.
Here are the last few lines of /var/log/apt/term.log :

Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/liblircclient0_0.8.4a-0ubuntu2~intrepid1_i386.deb
Processing was halted because there were too many errors.
