Dpkg and apt > should, AFAIK, exit nonzero in that situation. Hmmm, apt-install is basically doing "apt-get install $packages" (in the chroot and "inside" debconf-apt-progress). So, that would mean that apt does not fail when it can't read a file. It's very surprising that it doesn't, indeed....but, then that would mean the bug is to reassign to apt. Any chance that you can manually debug this further (by running apt manually or so)? --
