Now apticron fails:
apticron report [Thu, 19 Apr 2007 08:04:58 +0300]
========================================================================
apticron has detected that some packages need upgrading on:
localhost
[ 127.0.0.1 ]
The following packages are currently pending an upgrade:
dbus 1.0.2-4
dcoprss 4:3.5.6-2
debhelper 5.0.48
....
========================================================================
Package Details:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/apt-listchanges", line 225, in ?
main()
File "/usr/bin/apt-listchanges", line 61, in main
tty = open('/dev/tty', 'r+')
IOError: [Errno 6] No such device or address: '/dev/tty'
I see that opening /dev/tty was introduced as a fix for #343423 and
unfortunately have no idea how to avoid breaking apticron.
Thanks for considering,
dam
