Followup-For: Bug #143307 Package: dpkg Version: 1.14.18 *** Please type your report below this line ***
When trying to upgrade my SID system as I do every few days, dpkg crashed
with the above mentioned assertion failure.
As far as I can see, the major change in todays upgrade which aptitude
wanted to install was the new perl version.
dpkg --configure -a
also always crashes with the assert, rendering dpkg more or less unusuable
for me ATM...
Any hints?
I'll also attach a debug log.
Greetings,
Gunter
