Somebody in debian-testing said he was unable to reproduce it. Since I was not sure we were talking about exactly the *same* bug, I reported a way to make dpkg to segfault. > This bug has nothing to do with the fact that you mount /floppy, the > problem comes from the fact that dpkg have to print the translation of > "dpkg: unable to delete old file..." and for a reason not known core dump > in it. Fine. If you or dpkg maintainers think this bug is the same as the one already reported, please merge them. Also, if dpkg maintainers feel a bug should not be reported more than 7 times, then feel free to close the 8th report of it (I would not mind, as long as the fact that this bug is fixed is widely announced when it was). > BTW, could you try to reproduce this bug on a glibc2.1 based system ? > [...] Mmm, sorry, no.
