apt-get dies with segmentation fault at 98%
Platform: Intel PII, debian testing/unstable (sarge)
apt 0.5.4,
dpkg 1.10.9
libc6 2.3.1-16
apt-get doesn't work for me today. The commands
apt-get --dry-run dist-upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade
apt-get update
The commands above all write out lines like this
Reading Package Lists...1%
with the percentage number counting. When it gets to 98% it crashes,
and the resulting line looks like
Segmentation faultsts...98%
It worked for me yesterday. I used it to install tomcat 4.1.18.
The only thing that has happened with the apt database since
yesterday, is that
apt-get update
has been run as a cron job.
Has the apt database been corrupted somehow? Is it something I've
read from one of the apt lines? My sources.list file is attached.
Is there a way to repair this?
Thanx!
