    you should also post the command you issued and not the errors only
    Read the forum rules:

    The same error here

    Error Type:
    Error Value: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, exceptions.SystemError found
    File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/apt/aptBackend.py, line 2216, in

    This happens when you try to update software with KPackageKit i look the same bug in kubuntu users ...

    KPackageKit version :

    Qt: 4.7.0
    KDE Development Platform: 4.5.3 (KDE 4.5.3)
    KPackageKit: 0.5.4
