I put the emphasis on the title of the bug report, "writes when nothing should be written". The comment about taking long to execute for me is secondary, a subproduct, a side-comment. I agree that 2s is far more time that it should be desirable, but yet it's 2s and nobody is going to die because of that. All of the initialisation process is suboptimal (according to comments to dburrows in other bug reports), it should be addressed separately and comprehensively and for many commands, not just when the package is not found, IMO. In other words, the speed issue is not especific a problem that happens when the package is not found, but a general problem of aptitude, so I don't think that this bug report should be kept open because of that. So if this issue is going to live in the BTS I would rather have a new bug report, indicating all of the commands (install, show, etc) affected, and gathering information / merging bug reports -- there are quite a few of them complaining about resources / speed. But if you prefer to keep it open go ahead, I'm not going to argue. Cheers. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
