severity 420147 normal thanks Could you please supply 1. a copy of a /var/lib/dpkg/available which causes the problem 2. a complete session transcript ?
I'm afraid it's not even clear from your bug report whether the bug is really in dpkg or aptitude, given the command you say you ran. I have tested adding 1Mby of nulls to my actual available file and it worked for me. Also, you had no justification for setting `Severity: important' on this bug report. I have corrected the severity. Ian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
