Package: apt
Version: 1.1~exp8
Severity: grave
Hello,
this morning, apt started segfaulting out of blue. My current workaround
was to install the experimental version and run "apt-cache gencaches"
then, at least, apt-cache stopped segfaulting. But apt-get still cannot
run an update, see below, because apparently _apt user was not
created... and no idea why.
Note: I had to install manually, maybe this fact plays a role here.
I also kept the coredumps and /var/{cache,lib}/apt folder snapshots from
the segfaulting version for post-mortem analysis.
Regards,
Eduard.

Hi,
(for some reason, this mail didn't end up in my inbox… I just stumbled
over it in the BTS now wondering why apt has a RC bug out of a sudden…)

Not a good idea. The /experimental version might be in experimental for
a reason… the version was also not updated for the libstdc++6 transition
happening in /sid so far. It would have been more reasonable to figure
out and report the initial segfaults… if you can reproduce them please
report them!

As you say, you installed by hand, but that install wasn't complete and
so apt hangs there in a limbo-state between installed and not-installed.
Packages in such a state have undefined runtime behaviour: You are lucky
"apt-get update" just refuses to work by default (you could actually
tell it to work by disabling the user changing) – in this state it would
be legally allowed to eat your first born child and plead not guilty… ;)

You have to run 'dpkg --configure -a' to finish the installation of
'apt'. Currently it is just unpacked, but unconfigured on your system.
Your installation of libapt-pkg4.15 installs and configures the library,
but it doesn't automatically also configure packages which depend on
this library (and failed before) like apt.
You should have installed the library before apt…
Complete the installation of apt and the user _apt should exist. I am
therefore closing this bug as this is not a bug – installing stuff with
dpkg is just not as easy as it is with apt as it is lower in the stack
and provides therefore less hand holding.
Best regards
