Subject: apt: improper integration with package apt-listbugs Package: apt Version: 1.8.0~rc2 Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer, Today, when I performed 'apt-get upgrade', apt correctly invoked apt-listbugs, notified me of a grave bug in a package, and asked me if I wanted to continue. When I said no, it exited. This is a bug. If apt is going to integrate apt-listbugs (which it has decided to do), it should remove the noted package (and any sole dependencies) from the list of packages to be upgraded in the current go, and proceed, or not, based upon the user's answer to the usual prompt. Apt should not abort the entire install because an objection to a single package. -- System Information: Distributor ID: Devuan Description: Devuan GNU/Linux 2.0.0 (ascii) Release: 2.0.0 Codename: ascii Architecture: x86_64 Kernel: Linux 4.14.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages apt depends on: ii adduser 3.118 ii debian-archive-keyring 2018.1 ii gpgv 2.2.12-1 ii libapt-pkg5.0 1.8.0~beta1 ii libc6 2.28-5 ii libgcc1 1:8.2.0-15 ii libgnutls30 3.6.6-2 ii libseccomp2 2.3.3-3 ii libstdc++6 8.2.0-15 Versions of packages apt recommends: ii ca-certificates 20190110 Versions of packages apt suggests: iu apt-doc 1.8.0~rc2 ii aptitude 0.8.11-6 ii dpkg-dev 1.19.4 ii gnupg 2.2.12-1 ii gnupg2 2.2.12-1 ii powermgmt-base 1.33 ii synaptic 0.84.5 -- no debconf information -- hkp://keys.gnupg.net CA45 09B5 5351 7C11 A9D1 7286 0036 9E45 1595 8BC0
