Package: libapt-pkg4.12 Version: 0.9.7.5 Severity: critical Justification: breaks unrelated software
Dear Maintainer, I have just found a bug (segfault) that seems to be related to this library. Originally the error occured when I wanted to install a package. Here is a gdb-backtrace from apt-get and aptitude: 8<================================== % gdb `which apt-get` GNU gdb (GDB) 7.4.1-debian Copyright (C) 2012 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
