[..] I bisected this and it it appears that c3045b is the one that introduced the problem. Looking closer it appears that I can not do ioctl(d-slave, TIOCSCTTY, 0) more than ones on freebsd without a new openpty() to get a new master pty (i.e. I can not use the slave fd again). I will do more digging into this issue. Cheers, Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bsd-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

This bug should be reproducible in stable just by upgrading libapt-pkg4.12 and dependencies as needed. So I think Aurelien's Qemu wheezy images would be the quickest way. Thank you and Robert and Cyril for your help and suggestions. I have a kfreebsd stable install in qemu now and can reproduce the bug with my git apt tree. It looks like the pty handling in pkgDpkgPM broke and the stdout of the dpkg inside the pty is closed/unavailable too early for some reason. I see: error writing to 'standard output': No such file or directory on the dpkg status-fd when running with apt-get install 2vcard -o Debug::pkgDPkgProgressReporting=true I haven't found the root cause of the issue yet unfortunately. As a workaround you can use the -o Dpkg::Use-Pty=False option, e.g.: # apt-get -o Dpkg::Use-Pty=False dist-upgrade Cheers, Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bsd-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

[..] Thanks a bunch for your bugreport and sorry for my slow reply. Its likely that this is fallout from some fairly big changes in the handling of dpkg. What is the best way for me to reproduce this? I don't have a kfreebsd system right now - is installing one from a current installer image in kvm the quickest way (I assume so)?
