Hi Sven, 2016-03-09 17:30 Sven Joachim:
Package: aptitude Version: 0.7.8-1 Severity: normal The fix for bug #317928 has the annoying side effect that aptitude refuses to perform various actions on the commandline on a dumb terminal, e.g. "aptitude install <package>" or "aptitude safe-upgrade" now fail with the error message aptitude cannot run in ncurses mode with terminal type "dumb" This breaks running pdebuild from within Emacs, for instance.
Thanks for the report. I forbade this only if "visual-preview" is requested (it was the initial intention). I also added a few more checks now also to forbid launching solution screens and previews from the command-line in dumb terms. Cheers. -- Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo <manuel.montez...@gmail.com>
