Title:
method mirror broken at 1.3
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in apt source package in Xenial:
Fix Released
Status in apt source package in Zesty:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
[Impact]
The mirror method always dies with a SEGV. It does not initialize _system but
calls a function that sometimes uses it.
[Test case]
Use a mirror sources.list entry like
deb mirror://mirrors.ubuntu.com/mirrors.txt zesty main restricted
universe multiverse
[Regression potential]
The fix is small, and simply avoids using _system if _system is NULL in the
called method. There should not be any regressions due to this.
