Hello

I write to you because there is no activity on this bug for 3+ years
and the maintainer believes it has been fixed.

Please take a look and let us know.  The last message is:

 This is in reply to the various bugs about the aptitude resolver dying
 with an uncaught exception.  I've uploaded a version to experimental
 that I hope will fix this problem; if you have a chance, it would be
 great if you could test this and confirm that it works for you.

 Nicht gefangene Ausnahme:
 ../../../src/generic/problemresolver/problemresolver.h:2216:
 generic_problem_resolverPackageUniverse::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.

 Hopefully this is fixed in version 0.4.4-5~1 (in experimental).

And in particular this part:

 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.


Thanks

 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:

  This is (almost certainly) not related to the problem above,
although I have no clue what could have caused it.

Bug#423774: aptitude: Asssertion failed and /var/cache/apt/pkgcache.bin trashed

2007-05-14 Thread Tobias Frost
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_resolverPackageUniverse::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)
