Don't do that.

Please read the NEWS file, it's what it exists for and it would have
told you how to revert the seccomp change. Do not run unstable without
apt-listchanges.

Please get a coredump and run gdb on it to figure out which syscall failed.
With systemd-coredump, it's just a matter of running coredumpctl gdb after
running a failed apt update.

Any special libnss modules installed?

Signal 31 is SIGSYS, so likely, althrough…

… that is an architecture Julian has likely tested extensively – and it
works for me on amd64, too, so a coredump would be handy for Julian to
look at as he already said as your problem is unreproducible for us.

Please don't do this. Julian already quoted the NEWS.Debian file with
details on how to disable seccomp, so if that is your problem, disable
it for the time being and be happy – don't change to ftp which will be
gone in a few days (at the very least, ftp uses seccomp, too, so its not
a generic problem like kernel not supporting it or something, but really
some syscall not whitelisted which should be).

2017-10-25 Thread nicodache
Hello,

I believe I'm facing the same issue after my yesterday's update, with
method http.

[20:51]  ~ $ sudo apt-get update
Réception de:1 http://ftp.belnet.be/debian sid InRelease [235 kB]
Lecture des listes de paquets... Fait
E: Method http has died unexpectedly!
E: Le sous-processus http a reçu le signal 31

[20:51]  ~ $ apt --version
apt 1.6~alpha1 (amd64)

Do you confirm the cause appears similar ?

I managed to update my Sid after modifying my source.list to point towards
ftp://. It all went fine, but when reversing to http (for
https://www.debian.org/News/2017/20170425), error is still present.

FWIW, I've had the same error with method https (which I use for non-free
Opera web browser).

Thanks
