Bug#283923: New APT is likely to fix this bug
After bugging Matt Zimmerman about this bug on IRC, he made a new
build which could be OK for making this bug disappear.
I cannot test this myself now, but, Andrew, could you test yourself as
you mentioned you werehit by it as well?
The new APT is available at
http://people.debian.org/~mdz/apt-0.5.27.2/
(i386 build)
You probably to manually install it before running tasksel, for
instance by switching to VT2 as soon as base-config starts.
I'll make this test myself, but probably not before a few days.
