Package: apt-listbugs Version: 0.1.2 Severity: critical Justification: breaks unrelated software
A few days ago after an dist-upgrade, apt-get stopped working. I put critical on this as it breaks apt. Please reclassify if I misunderstood this. Example outputs: apt-get install apt-listbugs . . . Do you want to continue [Y/n]? /bin/sh: /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs: No such file or directory E: Sub-process /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs apt || exit 10 returned an error code (10) E: Failure running script /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs apt || exit 10 dpkg --search /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs dpkg: /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs not found. ls -l /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10apt-listbugs.disabled -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 296 Mar 31 2008 /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10apt-listbugs.disabled dpkg --search etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10apt-listbugs.disabled dpkg: /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10apt-listbugs.disabled not found. cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10apt-listbugs.disabled // Check all packages whether they has critical bugs before they are installed. // If you don't like it, comment it out. DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs {"/usr/sbin/apt-listbugs apt || exit 10"}; DPkg::Tools::Options::/usr/sbin/apt-listbugs ""; DPkg::Tools::Options::/usr/sbin/apt-listbugs::Version "2"; Note: I don't know if the .disabled extension was added by me or from some configuration script. On another computer containing the file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10apt-listbugs instead, exactly the same problem occured. Linking /bin/true to /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs fixed the problem. A better fix would be for the command in 10apt-listbugs to first check if the /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs exists before trying to run it. /Jörgen -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages apt-listbugs depends on: ii apt 0.7.25.1 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libdpkg-ruby1.8 0.3.5 modules/classes for dpkg on ruby 1 ii libgettext-ruby1.8 1.93.0-1.1 Gettext for ruby1.8 ii libhttp-access2-ruby1.8 2.1.5.2-1 HTTP accessing library for ruby (t ii libruby1.8 [libzlib-ruby1.8] 1.8.7.249-1 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.
