Bug#1021781: apt: Fix error handling with getline
Package: apt
Version: 2.4.8
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
While working building images using debos[1] with Apertis [2] I noticed strange
behaviors with apt. After debugging the issue, I found what I understand is a
bug and submitted a MR to try to fix it.
https://salsa.debian.org/apt-team/apt/-/merge_requests/265/
As as summary I consider that in some cases the error handling after calling
getline is not correct since it only takes into account errno but not the
return value.
Thanks is advance,
Walter
