Please tell me when I can remove the download Thanks (also to Francesco who uploaded the files privately). Unfortunately I can't reproduce it with either at the moment, which is a bit strange at the very least in Francesco's case as his output suggests a segfault at 65% done, which should be still inside the lists/ files and not in the dpkg/status file as the later is very small compared to (multiple) Packages+Translation files. Mhhhhh. I drop my binary caches just to be sure # rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin and then I am trying as user with $ apt-cache policy -o dir::etc=/tmp/poli/etc -o dir::state::lists=/tmp/poli/lists -o apt::architecture=i386 and $ apt-cache policy -o dir::etc=/tmp/haber/etc/apt -o dir::state::lists=/tmp/haber/var/lib/apt/lists respectively. That should be segfaulting as any apt command is building a binary cache (if need be in memory only), but it doesn't for me. I presume it does for you guys… (Not a hell of a lot of time at the moment, so if someone else feels like working on it I wouldn't complain) Best regards David Kalnischkies
