Package: apt Version: 0.8.16~exp6 Severity: normal When apt has finished installing a package, it asks a question as follows:
Do you wish to delete previously downloaded .deb files? Accidentally answering Yes will cause all .deb files to be deleted, even if they are being shared across the network. The following configuration option in /etc/apt/apt.conf is supposed to suppress this question, preventing accidental deletion of the .deb files. However, this option is ineffective, and the question still appears: APT::DSelect::Clean "never"; The question should not be asked if Clean "never" is configured as above. -- Package-specific info: -- apt-config dump -- APT ""; APT::Architecture "i386"; APT::Build-Essential ""; APT::Build-Essential:: "build-essential"; APT::Install-Recommends "0"; APT::Install-Suggests "0"; APT::Authentication ""; APT::Authentication::TrustCDROM "true"; APT::NeverAutoRemove ""; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^firmware-linux.*"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-firmware$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-image.*"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^kfreebsd-image.*"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-restricted-modules.*"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^linux-ubuntu-modules-.*"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^gnumach$"; APT::NeverAutoRemove:: "^gnumach-image.*"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections ""; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "restricted/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "universe/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "multiverse/metapackages"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "oldlibs"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "restricted/oldlibs"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "universe/oldlibs"; APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections:: "multiverse/oldlibs"; APT::Default-Release "squeeze"; APT::Cache-Limit "33554432"; APT::DSelect ""; APT::DSelect::Clean "never"; APT::Architectures ""; APT::Architectures:: "i386"; Dir "/"; Dir::State "var/lib/apt/"; Dir::State::lists "lists/"; Dir::State::cdroms "cdroms.list"; Dir::State::mirrors "mirrors/"; Dir::State::extended_states "extended_states"; Dir::State::status "/var/lib/dpkg/status"; Dir::Cache "var/cache/apt/"; Dir::Cache::archives "archives/"; Dir::Cache::srcpkgcache "srcpkgcache.bin"; Dir::Cache::pkgcache "pkgcache.bin"; Dir::Etc "etc/apt/"; Dir::Etc::sourcelist "sources.list"; Dir::Etc::sourceparts "sources.list.d"; Dir::Etc::vendorlist "vendors.list"; Dir::Etc::vendorparts "vendors.list.d"; Dir::Etc::main "apt.conf"; Dir::Etc::netrc "auth.conf"; Dir::Etc::parts "apt.conf.d"; Dir::Etc::preferences "preferences"; Dir::Etc::preferencesparts "preferences.d"; Dir::Etc::trusted "trusted.gpg"; Dir::Etc::trustedparts "trusted.gpg.d"; Dir::Bin ""; Dir::Bin::methods "/usr/lib/apt/methods"; Dir::Bin::solvers ""; Dir::Bin::solvers:: "/usr/lib/apt/solvers"; Dir::Bin::dpkg "/usr/bin/dpkg"; Dir::Media ""; Dir::Media::MountPath "/media/apt"; Dir::Log "var/log/apt"; Dir::Log::Terminal "term.log"; Dir::Log::History "history.log"; Dir::Ignore-Files-Silently ""; Dir::Ignore-Files-Silently:: "~$"; Dir::Ignore-Files-Silently:: "\.disabled$"; Dir::Ignore-Files-Silently:: "\.bak$"; Dir::Ignore-Files-Silently:: "\.dpkg-[a-z]+$"; Acquire ""; Acquire::cdrom ""; Acquire::cdrom::mount "/media/cdrom/"; Acquire::Languages ""; Acquire::Languages:: "none"; DPkg ""; DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs ""; DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs:: "/usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure --apt || true"; DPkg::Post-Invoke ""; DPkg::Post-Invoke:: "if [ -x /usr/sbin/localepurge ] && [ $(ps w -p $PPID | grep -c remove) != 1 ]; then /usr/sbin/localepurge; else exit 0; fi"; "Acquire::FTP::Passive"; CommandLine ""; CommandLine::AsString "apt-config dump"; -- /etc/apt/preferences -- Package: * Pin: release a=stable Pin-Priority: 999 Package: * Pin: release a=testing Pin-Priority: 60 Package: * Pin: release a=unstable Pin-Priority: 50 -- /etc/apt/sources.list -- # # This is the apt source file # #deb file:///cdrom/ squeeze main deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib non-free # deb-src ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib non-free # deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main # deb-src http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free deb-src ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free # deb http://www.backports.org/debian squeeze-backports main contrib non-free # deb http://unofficial.debian-maintainers.org/ squeeze/backports main contrib non-free restricted # deb-src http://unofficial.debian-maintainers.org/ squeeze/backports main contrib non-free restricted deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/ experimental main contrib non-free -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i386) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-486 Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages apt depends on: ii debian-archive-keyring 2010.08.28 GnuPG archive keys of the Debian a ii gnupg 1.4.10-4 GNU privacy guard - a free PGP rep ii libapt-pkg4.12 0.8.16~exp6 APT's package managment runtime li ii libc6 2.13-18 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.6.0-14 GCC support library ii libstdc++6 4.6.0-3 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime apt recommends no packages.
