@Ryan - this bug report is about modifying apt to prevent specific types of package installation failures from being reported to Launchpad by apport. If you happen to be having a problem installing linux-image on a Lucid machine and have found this bug report I'd guess its because you are seeing 'short read in buffer_copy' error message when trying to install the package. This is likely due to a hardware or memory failure on your system which is corrupting the package. You should try investigating the system to see if it is failing. Thanks and good luck.
