Again, the answer to your problem lies in the bug tracking system, and this time, the bug is already fixed: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=89830&archive=yes In apt 0.5.5+ this should no longer be a problem. You can also work around this by purging apt-listchanges, instead of just removing it. -- - mdz
