Thank you and Robert and Cyril for your help and suggestions. I have a kfreebsd stable install in qemu now and can reproduce the bug with my git apt tree. It looks like the pty handling in pkgDpkgPM broke and the stdout of the dpkg inside the pty is closed/unavailable too early for some reason. I see: "error writing to '<standard output>': No such file or directory" on the dpkg status-fd when running with apt-get install 2vcard -o Debug::pkgDPkgProgressReporting=true I haven't found the root cause of the issue yet unfortunately. As a workaround you can use the -o Dpkg::Use-Pty=False option, e.g.: # apt-get -o Dpkg::Use-Pty=False dist-upgrade Cheers, Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bsd-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
