Segmentation fault in dpkg and aptitude
After making the following changes to pull in sid's bluez 4.0 package in
a lenny system, I'm now getting segmentation faults when I run dpkg and
aptitude. Any thoughts on how to recover from this?
For example:
$ sudo aptitude update
Segmentation fault
Here are some messages from /var/log/syslog:
