Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apt

So today I decided that I would like to install Eclipse.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ ^_^]$ sudo apt-get install eclipse
Password:
Bus errorackage lists... 0%

Well, that was a surprise.  Similar results from "apt-cache search foo"
and "apt-get update".

I enabled core dumps, ran gdb, and I'm even attaching the core dump for
my "apt-cache search eclipse" command.

The bus error appears to be in std::string::compare in
debPackagesIndex::FindInCache .  I can't find out anything else because
without apt, I can't "apt-get source apt" to debug further, and I don't
know c++ anyway.

** Affects: apt (Ubuntu)
