Package: apt Version: 0.7.4 Severity: normal If I fill the disk most of the way, then try to download some packages using the http method, I get this (in aptitude; pardon the one truncated line):
http://ftp.us.debian.org sid/main libslang2 2.0.7-3 [Downloaded] http://ftp.us.debian.org sid/main libattr1 1:2.4.32-1.2 [Downloaded] http://ftp.us.debian.org sid/main tetex-base 2007-10 [Downloaded] http://ftp.us.debian.org sid/main pfb2t1c2pfb 0.3-3 [Downloaded] http://ftp.us.debian.org sid/main cm-super 0.3.3-5 [ERROR] Error writing to output file - write (28 No space left on device) [IP: 204.152. http://ftp.us.debian.org sid/main texlive-metapost 2007-12 [ERROR] Bad header line [IP: 204.152.191.7 80] http://ftp.us.debian.org sid/main context 2007.04.17-1 [ERROR] Bad header line [IP: 204.152.191.7 80] http://ftp.us.debian.org sid/main debiandoc-sgml 1.1.102 [ERROR] Bad header line [IP: 204.152.191.7 80] http://ftp.us.debian.org sid/main dvi2tty 5.3.1-4 [ERROR] Bad header line [IP: 204.152.191.7 80] At this point the acquire thread hangs with the message "waiting for headers". It looks to me like the background process is dying when it can't write to its output file, then spitting nonsense at the foreground process.
