Thanks, but could you please re-run it with -f? Apt spawns a child (/usr/lib/apt/methods/http) to do the acquiring (but please see below first, a gdb backtrace is probably more useful, if we can get it).

It may well be that /usr/lib/apt/methods/http segfaults. Could you please try something like: Start: $ /usr/lib/apt/methods/http then paste those lines into it: ------------------------------------8<----------------------------- 600 URI Acquire URI: http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/dists/sid/Release FileName: /tmp/lala ------------------------------------8<----------------------------- (the empty line with \n at the end finishes the request). I wonder if that segfaults as well. If so, I would like to see the gdb backtrace. Thanks, Michael -- Linux is not The Answer. Yes is the answer.
