See the thread "Package Operation Failed" for more info.

The short version is that the package dependencies weren't
sufficiently specified to prevent upgrading the libraries without
upgrading the backend as well.  The backend refused to start with the
error:

Application binary version (0.27.20140323-1) does not match libraries
(0.27.20140719-1)

After doing a full dist-upgrade, the problem was resolved, but if the
dependencies were right it should not have been possible to get into
this state.
