I am affected as well. I'm using Linux Mint 17 on a 64-bit laptop. For me the
error came immediately (or after downloading for apt-get update) and gave the
following message :
Segmentation fault
E: Problem executing scripts APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success 'test -x
/usr/bin/apt-show-versions || exit 0 ; apt-show-versions -i'
E: Sub-process returned an error code
I used the debugger to determine that the offending line in apt-show-
versions was line 55 :
my $cache = AptPkg::Cache->new;
The fix provided above worked. Deleting any files in /var didn't.
