Public bug reported: Hi,
I wanted to install this package with aptitude. When dpkg is called, it tells that its installing the package, but the dpkg process doe not respond (CTRL-C) anymore. Also no CPU& IO usage of dpkg. To solve this I killall aptitude rm /var/lock/aptitude rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock dpkg --reconfigure -a dpkg -r --force-all libboost-serialization1.42.0 dpkg --reconfigure -a I also removed the package from the dpkg-cache, but I'm not able to install it.
