  This is probably bug #318749, which is fixed in 0.3.4 (experimental).
At any rate, I can't reproduce it in that version.

Bug#332885: aptitude: loops indefinetely if --assume-yes is given and untrusted packages are found

2005-10-09 Thread Marc Haber
Package: aptitude
Version: 0.2.15.9-6
Severity: important

Hi,

aptitude gets in an indefinete loop when it is called with the
--assume-yes option and it complains about untrusted packages during
the call. This probably happens because the question about untrusted
packages is not satisified with a plain "y" but wants to see "yes".

Severity: important because there are other packages which use
aptitude non-interactively and aptitude's behavior fills up file
systems which might impair system operation.

Greetings
Marc
