Control: reassign -1 src:apt
Hello Alexander, APT deities,
2014-11-16 07:22 Alexander Galanin:
Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.8.2-1
Severity: minor
Steps to reproduce:
# du -hs /var/cache/apt/archives/
484M /var/cache/apt/archives
# aptitude autoclean
Del tzdata 2013i-0wheezy1 [0 B]
Del dpkg-dev 1.16.13 [0 B]
Del apache2.2-common 2.2.22-13+deb7u1 [0 B]
[...]>Del libdbus-1-dev 1.6.8-1+deb7u1 [0 B]
Del multiarch-support 2.13-38+deb7u1 [0 B]
Freed 0 B of disk space
# du -hs /var/cache/apt/archives/
219M /var/cache/apt/archives
Directory size is decreased to 265M, but aptitude reports that 0 B was
freed.
The same version of aptitude on amd64 machine works well.
aptitude autoclean uses SizeToStr() from apt's strutl.h file and the
same basic code at least for a decade (the same for all architectures),
so I am reassigning the bug report for their consideration, in the case
that they know if there is/was some known problem under this
architecture to explain that behaviour (please reassign back if you
confirm that all is well within apt).
I tried to reproduce it in an armel machine but was unable to set it up
properly (do not own root on it).
For reference, the relevant code from cmdline_clean.cc is:
===================================
class LogCleaner : public pkgArchiveCleaner
{
...
protected:
virtual void Erase(const char *File,string Pkg,string Ver,struct stat &St)
{
printf(_("Del %s %s [%sB]\n"),
Pkg.c_str(),
Ver.c_str(),
SizeToStr(St.st_size).c_str());
...
===================================
Cheers.
