Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.5.4-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi,

Since this morning aptitude won't start:

# aptitude
Ouch!  Got SIGSEGV, dying..
Segmentation fault

Here is a gdb stacktrace in case it might prove useful.

(gdb) where
#0  0x081f1dc7 in aptitudeDepCache::cleanup_after_change (this=0x8331c08, 
undo=0x0, 
    alter_stickies=true) at aptcache.cc:763
#1  0x081f2036 in aptitudeDepCache::end_action_group (this=0x8331c08, undo=0x0)

#4  0x081f6f5f in aptitudeDepCache::Init (this=0x8331c08, Prog=0x832a98c,

    do_initselections=true, status_fname=0x0) at aptcache.cc:211
#5  0x081f7192 in aptitudeCacheFile::Open (this=0x832d120, [EMAIL PROTECTED], 
    do_initselections=true, WithLock=true, status_fname=0x0) at aptcache.cc:1475
#6  0x081fa212 in apt_load_cache (progress_bar=0x832a98c,

    status_fname=0x0) at apt.cc:295
#7  0x08053f69 in main (argc=1, argv=0xbfe83874) at main.cc:558

Since it looks like related to cache I tried to rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin but 
aptitude
only regenerates these files and then dies.

Cheers,

Samuel.
