Title:
  oneiric unstable: update-apt-xapian-index crashed with EOFError in
  init()

Status in “apt-xapian-index” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I updated from 11.04 to 11.10. The update went fine but I get the following error now when launching Synaptic:
      terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Xapian::DatabaseCorruptError'
      Aborted (core dumped)

  Attempting to fix this gives me:

  $sudo update-apt-xapian-index
  No handlers could be found for logger "softwarecenter.db.update"
  Reading .desktop files from /usr/share/app-install/desktop/: done.
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/sbin/update-apt-xapian-index", line 101, in <module>
      if not indexer.setupIndexing(force=opts.force, system=opts.pkgfile is None):
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/axi/indexer.py", line 513, in setupIndexing
      addon.obj.init(dict(values=self.values), self.progress)
    File "/usr/share/apt-xapian-index/plugins/cataloged_time.py", line 72, in init
      self._package_cataloged_time = cPickle.load(open(self._packages_cataloged_file))
  EOFError

  Aptitude and apt-get still work though.
