  New

Bug description:

  There seems to be a programming error in aptdaemon, the software that
  allows you to install/remove software and to perform other package
  management related tasks.

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/aptdaemon/worker.py", line 968, in simulate
      trans.unauthenticated = self._simulate_helper(trans)
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/aptdaemon/worker.py", line 1092, in _simulate_helper
      return depends, self._cache.required_download, \
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/apt/cache.py", line 235, in required_download
      pm.get_archives(fetcher, self._list, self._records)
  SystemError: E:I wasn't able to locate a file for the videolan-doc package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.
