Nested quotes are invalid here. They are shell syntax and not interpretted by APT. The syntax for this option is in apt.conf(5). Multiple options should be passed using multiple "-o" arguments, for example: # apt-get update \ -o "DPkg::options::=--force-confdef" \ -o "DPkg::options::=--path-exclude=/usr/share/doc/*" status invalid ** Changed in: aptitude (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1075260 Title: aptitude update fails to handle multiarch when given quoted dpkg::options To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptitude/+bug/1075260/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
