Confirmed - I also get problem when opening "skype-ubuntu_2.2.0.35-1_amd64".
After retrying 1-2 times I can successfully install it.

This happened to me after trying to install the asus webstorage remote drive deb downloaded from asus. I did get a warning that the deb didn't contain the installed size field which was required, so the package was of poor quality, but it let me continue with the install.

The deb I got was in this zip file:

For me this happened after using update-manager -d to upgrade to the 12.04 beta, on a stock xubuntu-amd64 which has had ia32-libs installed for binary compatibility with the Android SDK (but otherwise nothing particularly atypical).

      is broken (final partial fix to LP: #932581)

Hello Irwin, or anyone else affected,

Accepted aptdaemon into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you please change the bug tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not, change the tag to verification-failed. In either case details of your testing will help us make a better decision. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

Setting to verificatin-done on the grounds that I run this on my box since the it is in -proposed and could not find any regressions. Plus I did a testrun in a clean VM and couldn't find any regressions there either.
