thanks
Hi Eric
Yes you are right. This is actually a newvserver fault.
The problematic code is the following:
if [ -f /etc/apt/apt.conf ]; then
cp /etc/apt/apt.conf $VROOTDIR/$VHOST/etc/apt/apt.conf
fi
# support the apt.conf.d directories
if [ -d /etc/apt/apt.conf.d ] ; then
cp -a /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/* $VROOTDIR/$VHOST/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ >
/dev/null 2>&1
fi
This should probably not be executed as it can cause the problems
that you describe.
This problem is not severe enough to be pushed for the next stable release
as Debian is in freeze mode. But I'll make sure to remove this code for
the next upload.
Thanks a lot for your help on this matter.
Best regards,
// Ola
