Package: apt Version: 1.6~alpha7 Severity: important
[ This is equivalent to the report with the same subject line, but resent because Emacs message-mode messed that mail up. Sorry for the inconvenience. ] Dear Maintainer, The said variables' values set in the said file (/etc/apt/apt.conf) are ignored by the apt(1) executable. Setting the same values from the command line works (i.e. with -o). apt(1) respects `Binary::apt::Dpkg::Progress-Fancy "0";' setting, but that's impossible to reach via the manual or internet searches (I only stumbled upon this variable when reading the previous bug report I attempted). I suggest that apt(1) respect the $TERM variable when it's set to "dumb", because the text becomes illegible in terminals that don't process "fancy" output. Also, on terminals with white background (i.e. default xterm) the text is often illegible. Also, I think apt(1) should respect Dpkg::Progress-Fancy over the equivalent Binary::apt... setting, given especially it does so when the former is set on the command line via `-o'. Having to find the latter somehow is completely not-obvious. Thanks in advance - Göktuğ. -- Package-specific info: -- apt-config dump -- APT ""; APT::Architecture "amd64"; APT::Build-Essential ""; APT::Build-Essential:: "build-essential"; APT::Install-Recommends "1"; APT::Install-Suggests "0"; APT::Sandbox ""; APT::Sandbox::User "_apt"; APT::Authentication ""; APT::Authentication::TrustCDROM "true"; APT::NeverAutoRemove ""; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^firmware-linux.*"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-firmware$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image-4\.9\.0-5-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image-4\.9\.0-6-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-headers-4\.9\.0-5-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-headers-4\.9\.0-6-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image-extra-4\.9\.0-5-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image-extra-4\.9\.0-6-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-signed-image-4\.9\.0-5-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-signed-image-4\.9\.0-6-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-image-4\.9\.0-5-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-image-4\.9\.0-6-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-headers-4\.9\.0-5-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-headers-4\.9\.0-6-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^gnumach-image-4\.9\.0-5-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^gnumach-image-4\.9\.0-6-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^.*-modules-4\.9\.0-5-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^.*-modules-4\.9\.0-6-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^.*-kernel-4\.9\.0-5-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^.*-kernel-4\.9\.0-6-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-backports-modules-.*-4\.9\.0-5-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-backports-modules-.*-4\.9\.0-6-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-tools-4\.9\.0-5-amd64$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-tools-4\.9\.0-6-amd64$"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages ""; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-image"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-headers"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-image-extra"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-signed-image"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "kfreebsd-image"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "kfreebsd-headers"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "gnumach-image"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: ".*-modules"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: ".*-kernel"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-backports-modules-.*"; APT::VersionedKernelPackages:: "linux-tools"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections ""; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "contrib/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "non-free/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "restricted/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "universe/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "multiverse/metapackages"; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections ""; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections:: "oldlibs"; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections:: "contrib/oldlibs"; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections:: "non-free/oldlibs"; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections:: "restricted/oldlibs"; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections:: "universe/oldlibs"; APT::Move-Autobit-Sections:: "multiverse/oldlibs"; APT::Update ""; APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success ""; APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success:: "/usr/bin/test -e /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.PackageKit.service && /usr/bin/test -S /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket && /usr/bin/gdbus call --system --dest org.freedesktop.PackageKit --object-path /org/freedesktop/PackageKit --timeout 4 --method org.freedesktop.PackageKit.StateHasChanged cache-update > /dev/null; /bin/echo > /dev/null"; APT::AutoRemove ""; APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant "false"; APT::Color "0"; APT::Architectures ""; APT::Architectures:: "amd64"; APT::Compressor ""; APT::Compressor::.
