Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.11.11-1
Severity: important
Unlike apt-get's
--list-cleanup
This option defaults to on, use --no-list-cleanup to turn it off.
When on apt-get will automatically manage
the contents of /var/lib/apt/lists to ensure that obsolete files are
erased. The only reason to turn it off
is if you frequently change your source list. Configuration Item:
APT::Get::List-Cleanup.
aptitude has no facility for cleaning up /var/lib/apt/lists/partial.
It will just fill up with diffs until one day the partition is full.
Even setting APT::Get::List-Cleanup=true won't help.
The same for /var/lib/apt/lists/ .
The only cure is to occasionally run an
# apt-get update
