Package: apt Version: 0.5.28.6 Severity: important File: /usr/bin/apt-get
I was using (via `dpk -l`): kernel-image-2.4.27-1-38 2.4.27-6 I noticed the following security alert: http://www.debian.org/security/2005/dsa-921 Therefore, I issued: apt-get update && apt-get upgrade The update did not recognize that I needed to update the kernel. As a work-around, I upgraded via: apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686_2.4.27-10sarge1_i386 After reboot, new kernel came up and works just fine. I duplicated this problem on another system as well. On that system, the outmoded kernel image was: kernel-image-2.4.27-1-38 2.4.27-2 -- Package-specific info: -- apt-config dump -- APT ""; APT::Architecture "i386"; APT::Build-Essential ""; APT::Build-Essential:: "build-essential"; Dir "/"; Dir::State "var/lib/apt/"; Dir::State::lists "lists/"; Dir::State::cdroms "cdroms.list"; Dir::State::userstatus "status.user"; Dir::State::status "/var/lib/dpkg/status"; Dir::Cache "var/cache/apt/"; Dir::Cache::archives "archives/"; Dir::Cache::srcpkgcache "srcpkgcache.bin"; Dir::Cache::pkgcache "pkgcache.bin"; Dir::Etc "etc/apt/"; Dir::Etc::sourcelist "sources.list"; Dir::Etc::vendorlist "vendors.list"; Dir::Etc::vendorparts "vendors.list.d"; Dir::Etc::main "apt.conf"; Dir::Etc::parts "apt.conf.d"; Dir::Etc::preferences "preferences"; Dir::Bin ""; Dir::Bin::methods "/usr/lib/apt/methods"; Dir::Bin::dpkg "/usr/bin/dpkg"; DPkg ""; DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs ""; DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs:: "/usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure --apt || true"; -- (no /etc/apt/preferences present) -- -- /etc/apt/sources.list -- #deb file:///cdrom/ sarge main deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/ stable main deb-src http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/ stable main #deb-src http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/ testing main #deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/ testing main deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main #deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.27-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages apt depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgcc1 1:3.4.3-13 GCC support library ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.5-13 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
