Package: dpkg Version: 1.16.10 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
You can seem some initial details here: https://www.sprezzatech.com/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=710 Hi there. I have two packages, "apt" and "gir1.2-gtk-3.0", either of which when installed (via dpkg -i, apt-get, or aptitude) will install with no problems, but then continue to show up in the uninstalled state. here's aptitude show output following a dpkg -i: [skynet](0) $ aptitude show apt Package: apt Essential: yes State: not installed Automatically installed: yes Version: 0.9.7.8-SprezzOS1 Priority: important Section: admin Maintainer: Nick Black <nick.bl...@sprezzatech.com> Architecture: amd64 Uncompressed Size: 3,336 k Depends: libapt-pkg4.12 (>= 0.9.7.8-), libc6 (>= 2.14), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1), libstdc++6 (>= 4.6), debian-archive-keyring, gnupg Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | wajig, dpkg-dev, apt-doc, xz-utils, python-apt Conflicts: python-apt (< 0.7.93.2~) Replaces: manpages-pl (< 20060617-3~) Description: commandline package manager This package provides commandline tools for searching and managing as well as querying information about packages as a low-level access to all features of the libapt-pkg library. These include: * apt-get for retrieval of packages and information about them from authenticated sources and for installation, upgrade and removal of packages together with their dependencies * apt-cache for querying available information about installed as well as installable packages * apt-cdrom to use removable media as a source for packages * apt-config as an interface to the configuration settings * apt-key as an interface to manage authentication keys [skynet](0) $ While these are both SprezzOS packages, I'm using an unmodified Debian Unstable dpkg. I don't doubt that I somehow messed up the package generation, but this nonetheless seems a weird behavior/state. I've been banging my head against this for a few hours with no luck.
