Package: aptitude Version: 0.2.15.9-6 Severity: normal aptitude has a bit of an odd tendency to do its initialization twice:
baby:~> LANG=C sudo aptitude install nonexistant-package Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading extended state information Initializing package states... Done Reading task descriptions... Done Building tag database... Done Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "nonexistant-package" The following packages have been kept back: abiword-common abiword-gnome ndiswrapper-utils 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded. Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used. [and here the second initialization:] Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading extended state information Initializing package states... Done Reading task descriptions... Done Building tag database... Done This is rather slow and a bit annoying -- I have no idea why it insists on doing the last part, and can see no bad effects if I Ctrl-C it. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.11.8 Locale: LANG=en_DK.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_DK.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages aptitude depends on: ii apt [libapt-pkg-libc6.3-6-3.1 0.6.41 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libc6 2.3.5-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgcc1 1:4.0.2-2 GCC support library ii libncurses5 5.4-9 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsigc++-1.2-5c2 1.2.5-5 type-safe Signal Framework for C++ ii libstdc++6 4.0.2-2 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 Versions of packages aptitude recommends: pn aptitude-doc-en | aptitude-do <none> (no description available) -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
