Package: apt-listbugs Severity: critical Justification: breaks unrelated software
On a system on which the current unstable version of apt-listbugs has been removed (via apt-get remove apt-listbugs), apt-get still attempts to execute the non-existent apt-listbugs program, which of course does not exist. Specifically, I get the following error meesages whenever I attempt to install software with apt-get: /bin/sh: /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs: No such file or directory E: Sub-process /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs apt || exit 10 returned an error code(10) E: Failure running script /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs apt || exit 10 To reproduce, install apt-listbugs, then do: # apt-get remove apt-listbugs then try to install another program. In order to get apt-get usable afterwords, I had to create an empty file at /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs and make it executable. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26custom Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages apt-listbugs depends on: ii apt 0.7.25.1 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libdpkg-ruby1.8 0.3.4 modules/classes for dpkg on ruby 1 ii libgettext-ruby1.8 1.93.0-1.1 Gettext for ruby1.8 ii libhttp-access2-ruby1.8 2.1.5.2-1 HTTP accessing library for ruby (t ii libruby1.8 [libzlib-ruby1.8] 1.8.7.248-1 Libraries necessary to run Ruby 1. ii libxml-parser-ruby1.8 0.6.8-4 Interface of expat for the scripti ii ruby 4.2 An interpreter of object-oriented apt-listbugs recommends no packages.
