Subject: random crashes after updates Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.1-1 Severity: important
Please note: this bug *never* appeared in the 0.2.x versions, I first encountered it a few months ago with the 0.4.x versions entering unstable. Maybe the 0.3.x versions have this bug too. Aptitude crashes quite often after my daily update. I start it with "sudo aptitude" do my daily 'u'-'U'-'g' and aptitude does it's work until the "press return to continue line". If I press return, aptitude returns to it's GUI and hangs directly after the my next keystroke. I don't know if it helps but the most top-left character on the GUI changes from "empty" to "slash" (If i remember correctly). When aptitude crashes, the GUI freezes and does not react on keystrokes anymore. You have to kill it on antother console. Aptitude crashes not everytime but quite often and always the same way as described above. It occurs on two different machines running sid. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.13-laptop Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages aptitude depends on: ii apt [libapt-pkg-libc6.3-6-3.1 0.6.43.1 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libc6 2.3.5-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgcc1 1:4.0.2-7 GCC support library ii libncursesw5 5.5-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsigc++-2.0-0c2a 2.0.16-2 type-safe Signal Framework for C++ ii libstdc++6 4.0.2-7 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 Versions of packages aptitude recommends: pn aptitude-doc-en | aptitude-do <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
