** Description changed: [Impact] apt search and probably other code crashes some time, as GetDepCache() in trusty does not call BuildCaches() first. [Test case] - TODO, some apt search -o RootDir=<something> foobar + Run apt search -o RootDir=/dev/null foobar, make sure it does not crash. [Regression potential] There may be some locking implications, as we build caches when opening depcache first, without locks. That said, the same code is in use in all post-trusty releases, and they work fine.
