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