Package: apt-cudf
Version: 5.0.1-10+b1
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainers,
The EXAMPLES section in apt-cudf(1) mention the following:
apt-get --simulate install --solver dump -o
APT::Solver::Strict-Pinning=false ghc
This fails with the error below. Please mention the
APT_EDSP_DUMP_FILENAME variable in the example. Maybe also mention that
the Broken pipe error is to be expected and harmless if you are using
the dump solver (at least that is how I understand it).

paul@testavoira ~ $ apt-get --simulate install --solver dump -o
APT::Solver::Strict-Pinning=false ghc
NOTE: This is only a simulation!
apt-get needs root privileges for real execution.
Keep also in mind that locking is deactivated,
so don't depend on the relevance to the real current situation!

E: Write error - write (32: Broken pipe)
E: Write error - write (32: Broken pipe)
The solver encountered an error of type: ERR_NO_FILENAME
The following information might help you to understand what is wrong:
You have to set the environment variable APT_EDSP_DUMP_FILENAME
to a valid filename to store the dump of EDSP solver input in.
For example with: export APT_EDSP_DUMP_FILENAME=/tmp/dump.edsp
E: External solver failed with: You have to set the environment variable
APT_EDSP_DUMP_FILENAME
