apt-get update segmentation fault
Hi,
Does anyone know why apt-get crashes when updating?

Removing a deb source solves the problem (5 sources works, 6 fails).
I have had this happen before, with sarge i think, and upgrading apt
to a newer level solved it, however uprading apt now will require
upgrading libperl
My apt is currently at version 0.7.6 on a mixed lenny/sid system (with
some packages from etch, unison in particular)
Surely apt should be able to handle 6 sources lists - why can't it?
and is there anything I can do to help debug why?
