Package: daptup
Version: 0.12.3
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
here is the problem:
# apt-get update
Building old list of packages... [done]
Building old list of available updates... Can't exec "/bin/sh": Argument list
too long at /usr/bin/daptup line 77.
at /usr/bin/daptup line 77
Daptup::Backend::AptOrCupt::get_updates('Daptup::Backend::AptOrCupt=HASH(0x9d32acc)',
'/var/spool/daptup/updates-before') called at /usr/bin/daptup line 451
main::do_pre() called at /usr/bin/daptup line 571
[done]
[...]
This bug occurs on a test system with (too ?) many installed packages:
$ wc /var/spool/daptup/new-after
37137 303695 2288390 /var/spool/daptup/new-after
$ dpkg -l | wc
16046 147118 2339060
I tested with /bin/sh pointing to bash and dash: the result is the same.
