Around the same time we got another report about this, so this one was supposed to be merged, but ultimatively forgotten… I am therefore closing it now appropriately at least. The relevant changelog being: apt (1.1~exp4) experimental; urgency=medium […] * Add missing "adduser" dependency (for the new _apt user) Thanks to Russ Allbery (Closes: #763004) […] -- Michael Vogt <mvo@ubuntu.com> Wed, 08 Oct 2014 09:37:35 +0200 Thanks again & best regards David KalnischkiesAttachment: signature.asc
