Package: apt-listbugs Version: 0.1.0 Severity: normal
Hey. I've been seeing this problem as well over the past few months during development of some proxy software. apt-listbugs pretty much never gives me a problem otherwise (save on notoriously bad connections), but behind my proxy it was failing 3-4 times, on average, before succeeding. I tcpdumped several of these failure/failure/failure/success series, and the content was equal for all requests and responses. The only difference was the timing between, and distribution of data across, packets. More packets, arriving more sporadically, mean more apt-listbugs failures. It reeks to me of improperly-handled network I/O or event polling. Is apt-listbugs looping on short reads/writes, etc? Is it properly looping on EINTR? etc -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages apt-listbugs depends on: ii apt 0.7.21 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libdpkg-ruby1.8 0.3.2 modules/classes for dpkg on ruby 1 ii libgettext-ruby1.8 1.93.0-1 Gettext for ruby1.8 ii libhttp-access2-ruby1.8 2.0.6-3 HTTP accessing library for ruby ii libruby1.8 [libzlib-ruby1.8] 1.8.7.174-1 Libraries necessary to run Ruby 1. ii libxml-parser-ruby1.8 0.6.8-4 Interface of expat for the scripti ii ruby 4.2 An interpreter of object-oriented apt-listbugs recommends no packages.
