I think problem is in installing apt 0.6.X - downgrading seems not help
:-(((
in my box
kerka@dunadan:~$ dpkg -l apt
||/ Name Version Description
+++-==============-==============-============================================
ii apt 0.5.17 Advanced front-end for dpkg
kerka@dunadan:~$ apt-cache policy diff
diff:
Installed: 2.8.1-6
Candidate: 2.8.1-6
Version Table:
2.8.4-0.0 0
1 ftp://ftp.us.debian.org ../project/experimental/main
Packages
*** 2.8.1-6 0
500 ftp://ftp.cz.debian.org unstable/main Packages
500 ftp://ftp.cz.debian.org testing/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
2.7-29 0
500 ftp://ftp.cz.debian.org stable/main Packages
so: version 0.5.17 (without previous 0.6.X) is OK with unstable
Reason for this behaviour?
