Title:
  update-manager crashed with SystemError in mark_install(): E:Probleme
  können nicht korrigiert werden, Sie haben zurückgehaltene defekte
  Pakete.

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  The localized (german) part of this error message states that "issues can not be fixed" because there are "packages held back or broken". However, I'm not aware of having held back or broken packages. None of the following commands did provide any output: 
    dpkg --configure -a
    dpkg --get-selections | fgrep hold
    aptitude search ~ahold

  I did have some packages which had configuration files left (removed, not purged packages), though:
  hddtemp* libavcodec52* libavutil50* libcamel1.2-14* libdbusmenu-glib1* libdbusmenu-gtk1* libdns66* libdrm-nouveau1* libebml2* libebook1.2-9* libecal1.2-7* libedata-book1.2-2* libedata-cal1.2-7* libedataserver1.2-13* libedataserverui1.2-8* libexiv2-6* libfolks-telepathy0*  libfolks0* libgdata-google1.2-1* libgdata1.2-1* libgdata7* libgirepository1.0-1* libgladeui-1-9* libgs8* libgwibber0* libicu42* libimobiledevice1* libindicate4* libindicator1* libiptcdata0* libisc60* libisccfg60* libmatroska2* libnice0* libpango1.0-common* libsoundtouch1c2* libtelepathy-logger1* libwebkit-1.0-2* libwildmidi0* libwpd8c2a* libwpg-0.1-1* libwps-0.1-1* libx264-98* libxmlrpc-core-c3* linux-image-2.6.35-22-generic* openoffice.org-core*

  It turns out that "apt-get purge <packagename>" silently fails to
  remove packages (while "dpkg --purge <packagename>" does), but this
  may be unrelated.
