[Bug 788519] Re: behaviour regression due to apt-listchanges
This bug was fixed in the package apt-listchanges - 2.89ubuntu1 --- apt-listchanges (2.89ubuntu1) yakkety; urgency=medium * Merge with Debian; remaining changes: - apt-listchanges/DebianFiles.py: only use apt-get changelog if which is changelogs or both, so not for news. apt-listchanges (2.89) unstable; urgency=medium * Fix the 'none' frontend broken since version 2.86. * Introduce --select-frontend option for testing purposes to validate different frontends before release. * Quit early in the apt mode if there are no packages to process (this partially fixes #514865). * Standards-Version: 3.9.8 (no changes). apt-listchanges (2.88) unstable; urgency=medium * Fix build reproducibility by forcing LC_ALL=C for docbook-to-man calls. * Update the previous debian/NEWS entry to mention renamed options. apt-listchanges (2.87) unstable; urgency=medium * Use po4a for handling translations of man pages: + convert existing translations to *.po files, and unfuzzy them; + incorporate minor update of French man page by Alexandre Detiste from bug#796061; + make sure the Italian translation is actually installed; + update Makefiles, and add build dependency on po4a. * Fix encoding of non-ASCII mails (closes: #604922). * Convert http(s) and ftp(s) URLs into links in the browser frontend (closes: #587399). Additionally do the same CVE/CAN identifiers, and switch to using https for the Debian BTS links. * Introduce the --email-format option to optionally send mails in the HTML format (closes: #689731). * Rename the --save_seen option to --save-seen to match names of other command line options that contain hyphens rather than underscores (closes: #707667). Also rename --all to --show-all to match the name of the configuration file option. (Both older options are supported for backward compatibility, but no longer documented in the man page). * Enhance apt-listchanges(1) man page: + describe the format of the configuration file together with possible values of boolean options (see #707667); + document that browser, pager, and xterm settings can include arguments (closes: #784781); + disambiguate description of changes ordering (closes: #594844). * Introduce --ignore-apt-assume option to disable switching into non-interactive mode in case of `apt-get -y' (closes: #818712). * Switch to the non-interactive mode when DEBIAN_FRONTEND environment variable is set to "noninteractive". Add --ignore-debian-frontend to disable this. * Validate package names command line arguments (closes: #522700). * Try to prompt for confirmation when exception occurs (closes: #479530). * Update Polish translation. * Cleanup debian/rules a bit. * Drop useless build-dependency on libexpat1-dev. * Add debian/NEWS entry for recent changes. apt-listchanges (2.86) unstable; urgency=medium * New maintainer (closes: #813245). * Merge binnmu entries with regular ones, not to display the low urgency binnmus before other possibly more important entries (closes: #746428). * If at least one package is being upgraded, do not ignore newly installed packages to try to support cases when /u/s/doc/package directory changes into symlink to another package built from the same source. * Check if filenames dict contains package name key before deleting it to avoid exception (closes: #757203). * Print "Reading changelogs" into stdout, not stderr (closes: #789160). * Do not override the mail fronted with text when quiet mode is set and the mail frontend is usable (closes: #502347, #788059). * Handle the '--assume-yes' option of apt-get by using non-interactive frontend and disabling confirmation (closes: #687443, LP: #788519), and fix exception occurring on non-int value while parsing apt 'quiet=' line (closes: #604130). * Switch debian/copright to the DEP-5 format. * debian/copyright: + use https for Vcs-* fields, and link to cgit rather than gitweb; + remove remaining uploader; + bump Standards-Verrsion to 3.9.7 (no changes). -- Matthias Klose Wed, 25 May 2016 18:11:31 +0200 ** Changed in: apt-listchanges (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/788519 Title: behaviour regression due to apt-listchanges To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-listchanges/+bug/788519/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 788519] Re: behaviour regression due to apt-listchanges
APT_LISTCHANGES_FRONTEND only works I'm guessing if apt-listchanges is installed. I have now removed this package, but the behaviour is still the same since apt now calls sensible-pager automatically. A work-around for this issue is to set PAGER=cat to make changelog viewing non-interactive again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/788519 Title: behaviour regression due to apt-listchanges To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-listchanges/+bug/788519/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

** Description changed: Binary package hint: apt In Maverick, the following would prompt the user *once* (for the root password resulting from the initial 'sudo'): $ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade Now, due to apt-listchanges, if any changelogs need to be downloaded, - apt will run until an admin manually pages through the changelog - entries.
