This really isn't the right mailing list for this; -qa-packages is for
the maintenance of orphaned packages. debian-user would be a better bet.

That suggests a somewhat broken perl to me.

That indicates that /usr/lib/emacsen-common/emacs-package-install
segfaulted, it's a perl script.

Nothing's wrong with your package manager so far.

You might want to check out /usr/bin/perl in more detail. Using perl
5.6.1-7 on unstable, its md5sum is currently
2ee843b4185c78c84315914436b00e3c. If that's OK, then check that your
system doesn't have bad memory using something like memtest86.

secpanel_0.32-1_i386.changes is NEW

A Tcl/Tk GUI for SSH and SCP.
 SecPanel serves as a graphical user interface for
 managing and running SSH (Secure Shell) and SCP (Secure
 Copy) connections.
 .
 SecPanel is not a new implementation of the Secure
 Shell protocol or the ssh software-suite.
 .
 SecPanel sits on top of SSH software-suites and
 supports the commercial SSH and the OpenBSD's free
 SSH implementation. You may get information about these
 programs at http://www.ssh.com and at
 http://www.openssh.com respectively.
(new) secpanel_0.32.orig.tar.gz optional net
Changes: secpanel (0.32-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
  * QA upload.
  * New upstream version:
- listserver.tcl looks for tclsh as well.  Closes: #106513, #144222.
- Handles filenames containing spaces.  Closes: #132463.
  * listserver.tcl: Use portable shell code for finding tclsh.
  * gui.tcl: This file is not meant to be executed, so placate Lintian by
removing the shebang.
  * Moved architecture-independent files to /usr/share/secpanel.
  * Changed section to net since ssh is no longer in non-US.
  * debian/secpanel.1: Say something actually useful, even if that means
quoting the README.
  * debian/copyright: New upstream URL.
  * debian/changelog: Remove obsolete Emacs local variables.

Your package contains new components which requires manual editing of
the override file.  It is ok otherwise, so please be patient.  New
packages are usually added to the override file about once a week.

You may have gotten the distribution wrong.  You'll get warnings above
if files already exist in other distributions.

Description: 
 zlibc  - Uncompressing C Library
Closes: 146849 150189
Changes: 
 zlibc (0.9j-5) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * QA upload.
   * filetype.c: ps has its own _init() which gets called before ours and
 tries to use open() while zlib_real_open is still NULL, resulting in a
 segfault.  Linking with `-z initfirst' solves this, but messes up libc
 startup and causes bash to crash.  Therefore preinitialize zlib_real_*
 with wrappers that replace themselves with the real functions.  Due to
 ld.so weirdness at that stage, they can't call _init() (they'd get the
 one from ps), so move the initialization code to a static function;
 call it later from our _init() if necessary.  Yuck.  This enlarges
 uncompress.o by ~1 KB, but it's generic and fast.  Closes: #146849.
   * strsep.c: Include config.h for HAVE_STRSEP.
   * Switc
