--- Begin Message ---Package: aptitude Version: 0.2.15.6-1 Severity: normal Hi, first let me say THANKS! for your work with aptitude. It is a dream to use compared to everything else out there. Here's the bug: 1) fire up aptitude 2) open "Not Installed Packages" 3) open "Priority extra" 4) open "non-free" 5) search for "pow" On the "w" in "pow" I get Ouch! Got SIGSEGV, dying.. Segmentation fault every time. It's been ages since I've programmed; if you can't reproduce this then remind me what steps I need to take to produce usable debugging output. (I won't need detailed instructions, just an overview of the steps as a refresher).

The "(Closes: #270057) unfortunately has been committed to the upstream changelog and hence the bug has never been automatically closed.

I'm using %r for quite some years now in the default view and didn't have any segfault of that kind recently (neither on normal, virtual nor on no more available packages), so I'm quite sure that this issue is fixed for quite a while now. Closing this issue with the version of aptitude in the current Debian Stable (Squeeze).
