Right. Apt-listbugs is effectively called in the same context as maintainer scripts, and those are not guaranteed to have an interactive shell. The program must be smart enough to detect this and do the right thing (I'm not sure if it already does :-). This is all regardless of the aptitude–su–login issue that prompted this bug report IIRC. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
