Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.6.1-1.1
Severity: normal
In the ncurses interface, when i update, aptitue often crashes. I
started it within gdb: i can see that it freezes while deleting
old/useless packages. But as i don't have debug info, the stacktrace
is meaningless.
How i can get debug symbols for aptitute ?

Hello,
Sorry for having the bug unattended for so long, there's now an
ongoing effort to bring the list of bugs of aptitude up to date.
This bug is "legit", but the information provided doesn't help to fix
it. A trace of a tool such as valgrind, catching generic memory
corruptions happening elsewhere in the program would be needed.
That's exactly what Daniel Bug asked for 3.5+ years ago, but nothing
has been provided.
It was with version 0.4.6 of aptitude, so keeping open this bug report
is IMO of little use right now. Thus closing.
Regards.
