Bug#381520: python-apt: TagFileFree() segfaults on amd64
Package: python-apt
Version: 0.6.19
Severity: important
This kills update-manager at startup pretty consistently on amd64.
However, I haven't been able to reproduce it with an unstripped build
yet, so here's the relatively unhelpful stack trace:
Core was generated by `/usr/bin/python2.4 /usr/bin/update-manager'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.
