You cannot install mameo-launcher if the GUI is up - in other words, you
pretty much cannot install mameo-launcher at all.
Attempting to install maemo-launcher when the GUI is up will cause the
currently running maemo-launcher process to be terminated - which the
device considers a fatal error (and will cause a reboot).
This then leaves the dpkg system in a screwy state.
I don't know if you can turn off the watchdog reset in this case with the
flasher or not.

Hmm, how did you get into this state? I.e., what repositories did you
use and how did you get the Application Manager to upgrade the
maemo-launcher package?
In any case, you should do what dpkg tells you, reinstall
maemo-launcher. apt-get should be able to do it for you:
# apt-get install maemo-launcher
or maybe
# apt-get --reinstall install maemo-launcher
