Public bug reported: [Impact] apt search and probably other code crashes some time, as GetDepCache() in trusty does not call BuildCaches() first.
[Test case] TODO, some apt search -o RootDir=<something> foobar [Regression potential] There may be some locking implications, as we build caches when opening depcache first, without locks. That said, the same code is in use in all post-trusty releases, and they work fine. ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1815187 Title: Fix crash when opening DepCache before Cache Status in apt package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: [Impact] apt search and probably other code crashes some time, as GetDepCache() in trusty does not call BuildCaches() first.
