Title:
"apt-get download" fails if /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is not
accessible
Status in APT:
Fix Released
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
I'm using Ubuntu 15.04 dev with apt 1.0.9.3ubuntu1 and if
/var/cache/apt/archives/partial is not accessible "apt-get download"
doesn't download the requested package. Here are 2 examples (missing
directory and insufficient permissions because the user permissions
(which are restrictive in this case) got inherited with sudo):
sworddragon@ubuntu:~$ sudo rm -fr /var/cache/apt
sworddragon@ubuntu:~$ apt-get download nvidia-settings
E: Archives directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is missing. - Acquire
(2: No such file or directory)
sworddragon@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get download nvidia-settings
Get:1 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/main nvidia-settings amd64
346.35-0ubuntu1 [936 kB]

sworddragon@ubuntu:~$ apt-get download nvidia-settings
E: Archives directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is missing. - Acquire
(13: Permission denied)
