on one of my machines, aptitude segfaults since this morning. the
strace shows some weird events:
after the preloading and .so binding finished, aptitude call
gettimeofday() 14315 times, most of the time just one after the other,
but sometimes there are entries like
gettimeofday({1040573332, 778292}, NULL) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGTSTP, {SIG_IGN}, {0x40036970, [],
SA_RESTART|0x4000000}, 8) = 0
poll([{fd=0, events=POLLIN}], 1, 0) = 0
poll([{fd=0, events=POLLIN}], 1, 0) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGTSTP, {0x40036970, [], SA_RESTART|0x4000000}, NULL, 8) = 0
in between.
it eventually dies like so:
gettimeofday({1040573349, 582504}, NULL) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGTSTP, {SIG_IGN}, {0x40036970, [], SA_RESTART|0x4000000}, 8) = 0
poll([{fd=0, events=POLLIN}], 1, 0) = 0
poll([{fd=0, events=POLLIN}], 1, 0) = 0

Any tips?
