Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.4-4 Severity: important Now it happend a second time within a week, so time to file it as a bug.
I invoked "aptitude update; aptitude -i" and after the update, the following assertion failed: Nicht gefangene Ausnahme: ../../../src/generic/problemresolver/problemresolver.h:2216: generic_problem_resolver<PackageUniverse>::generic_problem_resolver(int, int, int, int, unsigned int, int, const PackageUniverse&) [with PackageUniverse = aptitude_universe]: Assertion "bd.broken_under(solution::root_node(initial_broken, universe, weights))" failed. After this, the pkgcache.bin seems to be in a very bad shape. Aptitude refuses to start, and apt-get is panicing too, saying that about every package installed has dependecny problems. Removing the file pkgcache.bin cures the problem (unfortunatly I did not preserve the offending file, but the next occurence, I will) Tobi -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18 Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages aptitude depends on: ii apt [libapt-pkg-libc6.3 0.6.46.4-0.1 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libc6 2.5-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.2-20070405-1 GCC support library ii libncursesw5 5.5-5 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsigc++-2.0-0c2a 2.0.17-2 type-safe Signal Framework for C++ ii libstdc++6 4.2-20070405-1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 Versions of packages aptitude recommends: pn aptitude-doc-en | aptitude-do <none> (no description available) pn libparse-debianchangelog-perl <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
