Re: binutils broken?

[Dustin Nicholas Jenkins <at88mph@telus.net>]

I keep getting a Segmentation Fault as well, something big happened 
during the update last night. For me though, it's dpkg that's faulting 
each time regardless. I don't know how to get around it if dpkg is 
failing, none of my packages can be updated/installed without it.

This line appears in dmesg each time dpkg is invoked:
dpkg[7253] general protection rip:2a956e39ba rsp:7fbffff6c0 error:0

And this line is spit out to the command line:
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg received a segmentation fault.

Anyone else?
