These are just three instances of the same problem: python-apt has deprecated some old functions in favour of new ones. But it seems that it did not just deprecate the old function, but it has also broken them. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce the bug in my system: in a clean chroot, it does not happen. It probably only happens when having obsolete packages installed, or something like that. Anyway, I've ported apt-xapian-index to the new python-apt API, and I hope that it fixes the problem. I would like you to give it a try and tell me if it works: git clone git://git.debian.org/collab-maint/apt-xapian-index.git cd apt-xapian-index ./testrun As soon as I know that it fixes the problem, I'll proceed with an upload.
