I'm getting what looks like the same bug on kfreebsd-i386, but _not_ on the same (multibooting) machine's plain i386 partition, even when running installs of identical lists of packages. In today's batch, all the following packages installed happily the first time I asked for them (reporting no significant bugs): base-files dbus dbus-x11 dh-make file ipopd iso-codes kfreebsd-kernel-headers libc-client2007e libdbus-1-3 libdbus-glib-1-2 libdrm-intel1 libdrm2 libjs-jquery libmagic1 libpam-modules libpam-runtime libpam0g lintian mlock smartmontools xul-ext-flashblock Leaving me with: debhelper gdb iceweasel libenchant1c2a libgcrypt11 tzdata Each of the above (individually or in combination) consistently failed to get past "Parsing Found/Fixed information... 0%" until I disabled apt-listbugs. They have nothing very obvious in common - iceweasel has Grave bugs, but tzdata doesn't have anything worse than Normal.
