Bug#898090: Is there any progress on this bug at all -- getting critical!

Hi Jeff, hi Shawn,

The original bug report was malformed and only later assigned to the
correct package.

The bug report states in the error message:

> Max. recursion depth with nested structures exceeded at
> /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.24.1/Storable.pm line 278, at
> /usr/bin/apt-show-versions line 274.

Do you also have a locale version of Storabe.pm in addition to the
following?

libperl5.24:amd64: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.24.1/Storable.pm

Please remove the version from /usr/local/lib and retry.

Regards
Christoph

Bug#898090: apt-show-versions

[Christoph Martin]

found 898090 0.22.7
thanks

Hi Hugh,

your bug report never reached me, because it was malformed:

Package: apt-show-sversions
Version: apt-show-versions

I only learned about the bug because of two followups.

I see in your report:

> Max. recursion depth with nested structures exceeded at
> /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.24.1/Storable.pm line 278, at
> /usr/bin/apt-show-versions line 274.

Why do you have a local version of Storable.pm?

libperl5.24 brings its own version in
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.24.1/Storable.pm

Please remove the local version and retry

apt-show-versions -i

as root.

Regards
Christoph

I am not able to install any security updates at all on multiple systems due to 
this bug – is there ANY progress or workaround?

Bug#898090: Running into the same issue

[Shawn Anderson]

I too am running into this issue.  I did an update via cpan and now I can no 
longer update my Ubuntu system.  This is a bit on the critical side – does 
anyone have any sort of work around?
