I just had a realization. We don't need to mess around with bisect and recompiling; you can just grab old versions from snapshot.debian.net and see whether the bug shows up in them.
Once we have a tighter range of versions, it might be worth trying bisect out, but it'll be easier too. Here are a few versions to start with: Version 0.4.5.3-1: http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2007/06/18/debian/pool/main/a/aptitude/ Version 0.4.7-1: http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2007/10/31/debian/pool/main/a/aptitude/ Version 0.4.10-1: http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2007/12/17/debian/pool/main/a/aptitude/ Version 0.4.11-2: http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2008/03/17/debian/pool/main/a/aptitude/ Some of these will also need libcwidget1, which you can find here: libcwidget1: http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2008/04/13/debian/pool/main/c/cwidget/ Thanks, Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
