I found out about apt-listbugs from this list -- thanks for that. But
I'm not sure that I'm using it correctly and/or have it configured
correctly.
When I do an 'apt-get upgrade' (running testing) the command typically
fills more than a screensworth while it downloads packages. Then I see
apt-listbugs running, but the crucial output -- the question that says
"continue with these or not?" -- is always off my screen, below the
bottom line. I hit space to no avail, and when I hit return I find that
I've just answered the default to the question ('YES install these').
This doesn't seem like very helpful behavior, so I'm guessing I either
need to run apt-listbugs differently or that I need to tweak some kind
of configuration for it.
A little more info: I typically follow this routine on the weekend to
upgrade my laptop to the latest etch:
1. CTRL-ALT-F1 to drop to a virt console
2. '/etc/init.d/gdm stop' to exit X
3. 'apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade'
Maybe it's the fact that I'm running the upgrade from a virt console?
I'd appreciate a pointer or two.
Thanks,
Rick Reynolds
