Package: apt-offline Version: 1.7.2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
apt-offline --help advertises a --simulate option (it's not in the man page). Unfortunaely, "apt-offline --simulate install foo.zip" actually performs the operation rather than only simulating it. A supposedly safe no-op shouldn't accidentally do things as root. regards Stuart -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.1 APT prefers proposed-updates APT policy: (550, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'stable'), (60, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_AU:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages apt-offline depends on: ii apt 1.4.7 ii less 481-2.1 ii libpython2.7-stdlib [python-argparse] 2.7.13-2 ii python 2.7.13-2 ii python-magic 1:5.30-1 Versions of packages apt-offline recommends: ii debian-archive-keyring 2017.5 ii python-lzma 0.5.3-3 ii python-soappy 0.12.22-1 apt-offline suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
