Package: aptitude Version: 0.8.10-6 Perl has use warnings FATAL => 'all'; to halt and return non-zero to the shell upon anything unexpected.
Alas, aptitude gives no way to halt a shell script upon its errors at least like the one in #887624. Some people would like a chance to fix ANY error and not have the script trundle on. Sure some errors are not as important as others but they still are things the programmer cares about and would like some way to stop and fix them... just like the red light is beeping on your car dashboard. Some people would like to pull over now... before a wheel comes off. >>>>> "AB" == Axel Beckert <[email protected]> writes: AB> This is a completely different issue.
