Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.3i
Package: apt
Version: 0.1.9 and 0.3.4
FYI,
On this newly installed slink machine, I needed gpm2 because ssh and
ssh-askpass installations failed, so I issued `apt-get install gpm2`.
It downloaded, configured, all well, but after printing the last message
about ssh-askpass configuration, it segfaulted and dumped core!
I doubted that it was dpkg, but wanted to double check with a `apt-get
update`, and it crashed the same way. I still have the core file if
it would be of any use to anyone. Then I ran `dpkg --pending --configure`
manually, without any problems. Then I downloaded that newest version
of apt, tried to reproduce the bug, but it all worked well :) I'm not
sure, but I'd say this would call for a new version of apt in
slink-proposed-updates...
Now the existing bug:
APT said:
Need to get 0b/105kb of archives. After unpacking 1001kb will be used.
But dpkg said:
# dpkg -s gmp2 | grep Size
Installed-Size: 168
Maybe it counted ssh{-askpass} sizes (which were configuring after gpm2),
too? If so, it should print the correct message. Otherwise, please fix
the bug :)
