Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.4-1 Followup-For: Bug #400560 I got the same failure when trying a dist-upgrade after a failed update. In my case, the update failed because a machine in my sources.list was not available in the network I updated from.
Retrying the update did no good. Removing the deb and deb-src entries from sources.list and retrying the updated fixed the problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-686 Locale: LANG=es_MX.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=es_MX.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages aptitude depends on: ii apt [libapt-pkg-libc6.3-6-3. 0.6.46.4 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-19 GCC support library ii libncursesw5 5.5-5 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsigc++-2.0-0c2a 2.0.17-2 type-safe Signal Framework for C++ ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-19 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 Versions of packages aptitude recommends: pn aptitude-doc-en | aptitude-do <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
