Just installing Lenny's apt over does not work, as it is linked to libc6 2.7 instead of 2.8whatever that intrepid uses, so it doesn't have the necessary files in /usr/lib (such as installing /usr/lib/libapt-pkg- libc6.7-6.so.1.1 instead of libc6.8 ) , regardless of ABI breakage. Pity :(
Latest apt and related apps should be backported IMHO, as this is a serious bug that bites anyone trying to track two distros at the same time (and using apt_preferences to avoid ruining the system while doing so). -- E: Wow, you exceeded the number of descriptions this APT is capable of. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/280660 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
