 I said unusable, not unstable ;P
 
 It wouldn't cancel for me, everytime I Ctrl+C'd to try to maybe cancel
 the bug retrieving it cancelled the entire install process. I had to
 purge it to get APT installing packages again.
 
 

I use apt-get and after a couple of minutes the listbugs timed out then
gave me a choice of proceed(y) or not(n)... didn't have to interrupt it

It wouldn't cancel for me, everytime I Ctrl+C'd to try to maybe cancel
the bug retrieving it cancelled the entire install process. I had to
purge it to get APT installing packages again.

I would guess moving /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10apt-listbugs would stop it
from running, but I could be wrong.

From reading debian-devel is the last few days it was mentioned that
there were changes to where bug info was comming from. Don armstrong who
maintains the debbugs packages, which is the bts software, has a
modified version of the bts on his own site. So it maybe that this is a
result of the changeover from his site to the new 'official' version on
debian.org that is now affecting the apt-listbugs packages.
