apt-listchanges within aptitude
On my older 'woody' system, 'aptitude' shows me the change log before actually updating packages and mails a copy of the changes to 'root'. However, in my new 'sarge' systems, neither of these are happening ... Here's my /etc/apt/listchanges.conf: [apt] frontend=pager email_address=root confirm=1 save_seen=/var/lib/apt/listchanges.db which=news Is there something else I've forgotten to set?

Here's my /etc/apt/listchanges.conf: [apt] frontend=pager email_address=root confirm=1 save_seen=/var/lib/apt/listchanges.db which=news Here is the problem, I guess you want which=both. Either change it manually or do it using dpkg-reconfigure -plow apt-listchanges. Cheers, Flo signature.asc Description: Digital signature
