Package: apt
Version: 0.9.5.1
Severity: normal

Hello, I see segfaults during apt-get updates, reproducibly. A second invocation then always works fine. This is what I see, but this does not tell too much:

Core was generated by `/usr/lib/apt/methods/rred'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

(gdb) quit

There is no -dbg package for apt as it seems. Please consider adding such.

Thanks
