Seeing the same bug here on Lucid 64-bit, with the same SystemError in .xsession-errors:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/UpdateManager/UpdateManager.py", line 586, in on_button_install_clicked
    self.cache.checkFreeSpace()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeCache.py", line 1104, in checkFreeSpace
    for (dir, size) in [(archivedir, self.requiredDownload),
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/UpdateManager/Core/MyCache.py", line 88, in requiredDownload
    pm.GetArchives(fetcher, self._list, self._records)
SystemError: E:I wasn't able to locate file for the linux-image-2.6.32-24-generic package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.

FYI, Jean-Baptiste meant to say /var/lib/dpkg/status, not /var/log/dpkg/status.
