This crash has the same stack trace characteristics as bug #624913. However, the latter was already fixed in an earlier package version than the one in this report. This might be a regression or because the problem is in a dependent package.

Thanks for reporting this error, and we're sorry we didn't get to it earlier.

The code has changed a lot since your report. So it's quite likely this problem has been fixed anyway, and Ubuntu Software Center will be better off if engineers spend their time on problems that people have been reporting more recently. If you still do experience the problem, please reopen this report and provide exact steps to reproduce it. Thanks for your understanding.
